Hi Tom

Thank you for trying this extension.  Andre's advice is good, however, I 
recreated your environment (except I'm using PHP 7.1.33) and found that it 
should work.  Unfortunately I was unable to reproduce your problem although I 
tried a number of complex pages that I use as test cases.  

Problems similar to this haver occurred in the past.  Usually it is some 
combination of wiki-markup that breaks the code which parses it into html (eg. 
a bug as you say).  If you go into your browser's 'debug' mode, usually by 
right clicking and selecting 'inspect', it should display if an error has 
occurred and in which bit of the code.

If you let me know if there is an error and where in the code it is happening 
that will help me to find a solution.  Even better, if you can isolate the 
wiki-markup that gives rise to the problem that will be even more helpful.

I am going to move this discussion to the Talk page of the TinyMCE extension 
(https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:TinyMCE) as this is where most 
issues have been covered so please do reply there.  The thread should be there 
in a few minutes.

Kind regards

Duncan

Sounds like you installed git master (=unstable development 1.35.x
version) of TinyMCE together with an outdated insecure MediaWiki version 
(1.31.0).

Does this problem still happen with a maintained MediaWiki version (currently 
1.31.6 for LTS, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download
and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading ) and the corresponding 
TinyMCE branch (REL1_31)?
