TinyMCE missing on EPiServer CMS 6

Vote:
 

Hi Guys,

It seems that TinyMCE isn't showing on the admin side any more after upgrading our EPiServer CMS 6 site from RC1 to 6.0. It is now using the CMS5 style editor which only works in IE.

Any ideas?

Check in web.config, you can change it there. Don't know where though.

I think its said that when upgrading a site to CMS 6 the old editor should be default but when making a new installation the tinyMCE editor is default.. It might be that since you are upgrading (even from RC1) it setts old editor as default.

And you you can change it in web.config. Search for PropertyControlClassFactory and if you have a LegacyPropertyXhtmlStringControl you should either change this to PropertyXhtmlStringControl or add a row with this option (to be able to switch between the editors). The default editor will be the one that is first in web.config. If no property is set the default will be TinyMCE.

Thanks Johan, that did the job.

My web.config had this after upgrading...

<add type="EPiServer.Core.PropertyControlClassFactory, EPiServer" id="PropertyControlFactory">
        <!-- Uncomment the following two lines to get legacy editor in edit mode for PropertyXhtmlString and PropertyLongString-->
        <!--<register type="EPiServer.SpecializedProperties.PropertyXhtmlString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.LegacyPropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />
        <register type="EPiServer.Core.PropertyLongString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.LegacyPropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />-->
        <register type="EPiServer.SpecializedProperties.PropertyXhtmlString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.LegacyPropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />
        <register type="EPiServer.Core.PropertyLongString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.LegacyPropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />
        
</add>

I've now changed it to this

<add type="EPiServer.Core.PropertyControlClassFactory, EPiServer" id="PropertyControlFactory">
      
        <register type="EPiServer.SpecializedProperties.PropertyXhtmlString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.PropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />
        <register type="EPiServer.Core.PropertyLongString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.PropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />
        
  </add>
