Hi devs, Marius has recently introduced the honoring of text editor for xproperty editing for textarea types.
This is great but it’s causing a lot of backward compatibility issues. We’ve fixed several xclass to use “puretext” for code but there are plenty out there still. I’ve just found another one with XWiki.WatchListMessage. The issue is that this is a blocker. I was trying to make a change there so I was editing using the “source” mode of CKEditor. The problem is that when I saved there were a lot of changes made to the content automatically, breaking the code, see for example: https://www.evernote.com/l/AHf4KpfVtfBOK5zqcyf_up1Rty923fZOm-I The main issue is that I’m stuck. There’s nothing I can do in my wiki (without resorting to scripting, using REST, etc). I’m proposing that we do the opposite: * When no editor is specified, use the wiki editor. Apps that want WYSIWYG in xproperties should say so. This is actually more logical to me because the object editor is a technical editor. In any case we need a solution that doesn’t break backward compatiblity. Since this change of behavior (honoring the editor for xproperties in the object editor) was introduced in XWiki 8.2 we need to act fast before it becomes a problem for our users. WDYT?
