Article edit page - content editing corrupted in backend

[mb87]

I'm having a problem where the content block in the article edit page in the backend all of a sudden decided to display in HTML, instead of the usual WYSIWHG. I'm using TinyMCE at my editor. Changing to No Editor or XStandard Lite doesn't seem to make any difference.

I have attached a screenshot of what I am seeing.

I'm sure other's have seen this problem. Unfortunately i cannot seem come up with the right search terms to solution to the problem.

Any suggestions how I can restore the original functionality? This is a big problem for me with the site. I would hate to have to rebuild the site. I've done that too many times already for other issues!

FYI. I'm using:

- Joomla 1.5.15
- MySQL 5.0.32
- PHP 5.2.9

Thanks!

Michael

Hi Michael,

Have you got the editor enabled both in

Site>Global Configuration
AND
Site>User manager>Your username>user editor

No I did not have it enabled in both places. I guess I didn't understand that I needed to.

Making the configuration in user manager solved my problem.

Feeling a little bit silly now!

Thanks!

Michael
