Support Thread for CKEditor Plugin

[Jetta]

Today, I downloaded and installed the latest version of the ckeditor plugin and v1.5.4 of the cart from this site. The ckeditor folder is in the editors directory and the ckeditor.php file is in the includes folder. The CKeditor was not showing in the dropdown select tool on the configuration page so I had to hack the admin/includes/init_includes/init_html_editor.php on line 48 to read:

if (true) $editors_list['CKEDITOR']  = array('desc' => EDITOR_CKEDITOR,  'handler' => 'ckeditor.php',  'special_needs' => ''); 

from

if (is_dir(DIR_FS_CATALOG . DIR_WS_EDITORS . 'ckeditor') $editors_list['CKEDITOR']  = array('desc' => EDITOR_CKEDITOR,  'handler' => 'ckeditor.php',  'special_needs' => ''); 

Even though the ckeditor is selected, there are no toolbars on any text modification area.

In your admin/includes/configure.php, what are the values of: DIR_FS_CATALOG and DIR_WS_EDITORS? How do they compare to the same in includes/configure.php?

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home1/xxxxx/public_html/xxxxx/store2/'); 

There is no DIR_WS_EDITORS setting in the config file.

I added the following code to my admin configure file:

define('DIR_WS_EDITORS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES.'admin/editors/'); 

and reset the code on line 48 but still no option to select CKEditor in the dropdown

Umm, thought the editors folder was in the store side not the admin side... Meaning would only need to define as:

define('DIR_WS_EDITORS', DIR_FS_CATALOG.'editors/'); 

Where exactly in reference to the base of your store have you installed the ckeditor files and why? (Do not provide the admin path n your response.

So i upgrade from 1.38a to 1.54..upgrade database and now add ckeditor ,made choice via Admin->Configuration->My Store->HTML Editor
If I now select at Text Editor the CKEditor from dropdown it shows the CKEditor choice but then jumps back to Plain Text.
Not any logs about this. Cant this happened because i used 1.38a before uprgade. ? Yes i made fresh install to 1.54.

I have installed this per instructions - on ZC 1.5.4..... I see CKeditor in my Html editor... SO does this actually put the editor in the Product Description part of admin when you are adding products? I am NOT seeing it there if that is so....

Thanks

In the upper right hand side of the listing screen, you'll see a setting for editor -be sure it's set to CKEditor.

I did find that - but as soon as I set it for it - it switches back to text....
