Rich Text Editor
From TechWiki
Contents |
Current Version
The current rich-text editor (RTE) used on this wiki is CKEditor under the extension name 'WYSIWYG', as packaged by the Semantic Halo project. Note the version used for this version of MediaWiki is version 1.5.6-1.
To enable WikED to be used in the stead of this RTE, it is necessary to toggle the disable function under my preferences -> Editing -> Rich Text, and then check 'Disable rich editor within the main namespace'. Unchecking that option will restore the RTE and disable WikED.
For installation and other help on this editor, see this help link.
Uninstall
To uninstall CKEditor for all users, comment out these lines in the LocalSettings.php file:
require_once("$IP/extensions/WYSIWYG/WYSIWYG.php");
$wgGroupPermissions['registered_users']['wysiwyg']=true
Older Version
The original version of the rich-text editor used for this wiki is the FCKeditor. It has been deprecated, but still works with this current version of MediaWiki. To restore it, you will need to uncomment the section in the LocalSettings.php.
It has a general Web site. But, there is also a specific plug-in for this installation.
There is also a useful manual.
Please note that sometimes this plug-in gets lost and loses focus. (This happens particularly when trying to toggle to wikitext.)
If that happens, save the file and re-open to get the menu back.
Uninstall
To disable FCKeditor, do so by checking the "Disable rich editor" checkbox on your my preferences dialog Misc tab
