Hi Kate, I'm sorry to hear about this problem. We actually had some recent improvements to the TinyMCE code that may fix the problems some of you're seeing - could you make sure that you're using the latest version of the code?
There's no question that TinyMCE is not perfect with wikitext, and it probably never will be. I'm wondering about that specific wikitext, though - why do you have a "<br>" in the middle of it? That seems to be what causes the problem, at least when I try it. Also, if you see an error message again, it would be great if you could send me the full wikitext of the page where it happens. -Yaron On Thu, Mar 22, 2018 at 8:35 AM, Katharina Wolkwitz <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Yaron and Duncan, > > after having had the opportunity to test TinyMCE on a few existing pages, > I'm now sad to report that I've had to disable it again, since it "wrecked" > to many of the existing formatting sets. > > It espicially had problems with code like: > > <sup>[[#top|[zum Seitenanfang]]]<br></sup> > > when it followed bullet-lists > > Also I very often got error messages when I tried to safe pages (something > with "loop" in it)... > > I really hope you'll be able to fix those problems very soon. > > Kate > > > Am 14.03.2018 um 14:35 schrieb Katharina Wolkwitz: > >> Hi Yaron and Duncan, >> >> thank you for this extension! >> I've just installed it on my wiki and am simply thrilled with how fast I >> now >> have a WYSIYWYG-editor up and running! >> >> And the best: it's running side-by-side with the "original" >> editor-interface, so >> all those who do not want to change over don't have to. >> >> Kate >> >> Am 14.03.2018 um 00:25 schrieb Yaron Koren: >> >>> Hi everyone, >>> >>> We're very pleased to announce the release of a new WYSIWYG extension for >>> MediaWiki, "TinyMCE": >>> >>> https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TinyMCE >>> >>> As you can probably guess from the name, this extension lets you use >>> TinyMCE, a popular (and open source) web-based WYSIWYG editor, to edit >>> wiki >>> pages and textarea fields within the PageForms extension. >>> >>> We have created this extension based on one called "VisualEditor", which >>> is >>> part of the BlueSpice package: >>> >>> https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor_(BlueSpice) >>> >>> It is not related to the much-better-known extension also called >>> VisualEditor, other than that they're both WYSIWYG editors. >>> >>> The BlueSpice VisualEditor extension was developed by a team at the >>> company >>> Hallo Welt!.
