Re my previous post regarding FCKeditor being about the size of a playing card in Google Chrome, I fixed the problem by altering the editor size in admin/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php. At line 405, change the width from 99% to something like 700 (no % sign). That fixes everything. You can also adjust the height at the same time on line 406.

Hi Tracy,

I haven't had a chance to look at that fix yet, but I do know that typing in absolute paths is a pain in the ########. Trouble is that I store images in several directories to keep control of them, so I don't know if the fix will help me or not.

On quickly reading the posts, I think the contributor has already created a folder called myfiles and that's where the images are stored. In your case, you either have a different directory name (so replace references to myfiles with it) or the absolute path you're using for myfiles is incorrect. Just keep playing with the paths and eventually it should all come together.

Sorry about the delay, but the email notifier didn't work. I forgot to change my email address!

I was having a problem with the latest version of this mod on an old 1.3.6 site. Couldn't see FCKEditor when trying to edit products or categories (in Firefox 3.0.)5 even though it was chosen as the editor. Then in post 104 of this thread...

... but I can choose it from define pages editor area and once I use it there it shows up for use under product pages as well!

I thought that sounded interesting, so I went into the Define Pages Editor, chose FCKEditor and there it was. Then I went back into the catalog and tried editing a product, and there it was again!

Sometimes you just have to lead your computer to water, like a stubborn horse.

I kept getting "Internal Server Error" when trying to use FCKeditor, finally I figured out through checking the error log that it was caused by the .htaccess file.

Apparently my apache doesn't really like the statement:

IndexIgnore */*

Maybe it's only my host, but I hear more people complaining about the FCKeditor / HTMLarea editor not working... only being able to edit plain text.

Anyway when I rename the .htaccess into say "1.htaccess" I can finally edit using the FCKeditor !!!

But... this is an unsafe situation... does anyone have a suggestion how to get the IndexIgnore to work?

I took a look at the official syntax and saw that the "*/*" doesn't seem to be supported.

Any help/tips would be greatly appreciated.

Regards!

I can not get this editor to work. I have installed all files and I have double checked my installation, all seems to be in place.

I have configured my store and selected the FCKeditor and nothing happens.

I have cleared my browser cache several times and still nothing happens.

All I get is the default text editor.

Can someone help me out??

Thanks in advanced

FYI... The HTMLarea editor also does not work.

I would check that your .htaccess file is present. I had the same problem a while ago when I couldnt get HTMLeditor working and making sure it was in the correct place solved it.

Like I said it was a while ago - memory is fuzzy and I probably haven't remembered the solution exactly

Hi ive been having the same problem as well. My Html editor was not working so i uploaded the fckeditor. I changed the settings in the Admin-config/mystore html editor to fck editor. When i tried to add a new product i was getting a internal server error.
So i opened my Htdocs/SHOP/editors-.htaccess (Htdocs being my route folder and SHOP being the folder for zencart) I renamed the .htaccess to .1htaccess and its now working.

Im still looking around for a fix but in the meantime it will help me get my products listed

I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but this Mod is not working for me.

I just reinstalled all files one by one and cleared my cache, logged out, closed my browser and restarted my browser. Still no
FCK editor. I selected the editor in admin/config/my store and still NO luck in getting this MOD to work.

I am running ZC v1.3.8a PHP v5.2.8 and FCK editor v2.5

I am totally at a loss on this. None of HTML Editors have worked since my hosting company installed ZC.

Any ideas!!!!??

Thanks

Hi
I had the same problem but i installed zencart myself. Try what i mentioned above it worked for me fine. Dont know how stable it is but its working.
Go to your

zencart directory then editors you will see a file called .htaccess-rename the file to .1htaccess then your editor should work fine.
