Hi Tom, I am glad you've got this working using an earlier version of the extension as found in the 'zip' file.
As I mentioned yesterday, the 'master' version should be stable so I think you have identified a bug in that version. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it without the information I was asking for yesterday. I'd be grateful if you would provide this information as then I could fix the bug so you and others could use the 'master' version without problems. Thanks also for identifying the problem with the documentation (your Note 2, below). The project does exist in Phabricator but it is not listed in 'Module:Callsigns' which is used by the template 'git file' to create the link in the documentation. I can place a link in the documentation directly to the Phabricator page but it might be better if 'Module:Callsigns' was updated to reflect the current contents of Phabricator. Sadly, this is beyond my limited knowledge of mediawiki so I may need a little help with doing this from someone else on this mailing list?

Now TinyMCE does seem to work properly, so that must have been the issue. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I’d still like to know how one might use the git method to get a stable version, for future reference. That way I won’t have to download locally and upload to my server. Perhaps there is a way to download directly to the server from a web page using command line? Thanks, -Tom On Jan 10, 2020, at 1:58 PM, Schoenemann, P.

Here is the entirety of the “download” section for “extension:tinyMCE” (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TinyMCE): Download[edit<https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension:TinyMCE&action=edit§ion=1>] You can download the TinyMCE code, in .zip format, here<https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-TinyMCE/archive/0.3.zip>. You can also download the code directly via Git from the MediaWiki source code repository (see available tags<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/ETMC/tags/master/>). From a command line, you can call the following: git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/TinyMCE.git To view the code online, including version history for each file, go here<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org//r/p/mediawiki/extensions/TinyMCE;browse/master/>. Note: 1) there is no indication that the git link leads to a unstable development version of TinyMCE. Is this something that users are just supposed to know? If so, it would be good for the developers to included some short note about this, and how users with less experience with MediaWiki etc. can go about getting the stable version. 2) that the last link (“To view the code online, including version history for each file, go here”) points to a page that reads: "The requested project does not exist”. -Tom Message: 2 Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2020 07:09:48 +0100 From: Andre Klapper <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: MediaWiki announcements and site admin list <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: [MediaWiki-l] [TinyMCE] TinyMCE doesn't show any of the underlying text on some pages Message-ID: <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" On Thu, 2020-01-09 at 22:09 +0000, Schoenemann, P.

I get a delay, then the tinyMCE menu, but then no text shows up below it for editing (even though there is text, and I can see it by selecting “Edit source” instead of “Edit” (which invokes tinyMCE). I’m running mediawiki 1.31.0, and my server is running 7.3.13 (which I can’t change). Any ideas? FYI I installed tinyMCE by going to my extensions folder and doing: git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/TinyMCE.git 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)? andre -- Andre Klapper (he/him) | Bugwrangler / Developer Advocate https://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper/ ------------------------------ Subject: Digest Footer _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l ------------------------------ End of MediaWiki-l Digest, Vol 196, Issue 5 ******************************************* _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list To unsubscribe, go to: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list To unsubscribe, go to: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
