I downloaded TinyMCE 3.0.8 to replace TinyMCE 2 in my Joomla 1.5.3 installation.

Problem is... I can't figure out how to install it. I've tried installing through the Install console in Joomla, which didn't work and I've tried just replacing the TinyMCE folder with the new one. Either way, I get NO WYSIWYG editor at all. Is there something here that I'm missing?

Sorry that this is not a helpful reply, but I too would be interested to understand how to install this. I really want to get spell checking working with it. At the TinyMCE site there isnt really any useful documentation on how to get it working in Joomla, I guess because its a general program, for use in lots of diffrent things.
Any help on the matter would be really helpful. thanks

The easiest way is to install the extension JCE editor from http://extensions.joomla.org/component/ ... Itemid,35/ .

JCE for J1.5.3 is really TinyMCE3.0.4 repackaged with a nifty admin facility to set all the new options that come with TinyMCE 3.0.

From the JCE load xml you can see how you can then update TinyMCE to the latest versions (but since you are having trouble already I would just wait till JCE patches it in).

Cheers

Hi Stasys,

I have followed the link given by you and pasted the folders and files of new version of TinyMCE in "Plugins" folder but still it doesn't allow me to add "usemap" to any image.

Help me please !!

Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi Stasys,

Sorry, I didn't get your point. You have given link from joomlacode.org and I have pasted "tinymce" folder and the php and xml files from the zip folder.

I have downloaded TinyMCE 3.2.0.1.zip. Which files should I copy to "plugins/editors" folder ? This action will overwrite files from joomlacode.org. Am I right ?

Btw, while searching for solution, came across an interesting link,

http://code.google.com/p/imgmap/wiki/Joomla_setup

I am not sure, how much helpful this would be !! I am going to try it though.

Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi Stasys,

There is no bug actually. I'll put forward everything in detail.

I am working with Joomla 1.5.4 and I need to map few areas in an image. Somehow, "usemap" attribute is chopped by the editor. Weird thing is, "image map" option is available in "image parameters" window. But, it's not accepted by the editor. On Joomla forum, an upgrade to the editor was suggested to resolve this problem. But, separate TinyMCE plugin is not available on Joomla plugins site. So, I downloaded latest version of TinyMCE(3.2.0.1) from its website.

I have unzipped "tinymce_3_2_0_1.zip" and pasted "jscripts/tiny_mce" folder to "plugins/editors/tinymce/jscripts" on my machine. The editor works perfect but the image map attributes are still chopped.

Thanks,
Sandeep

I've created a plugin that adds TinyMCE3 support. To get it, go to:

http://www.e-berzerk.com/opensoft/joomla_tinymce3/

The XML file will be updated later to reflect a better set of options. For now, it just gets you going.

Hi all
I also couldn't install Tinymce3. There is an error message: "Could not find an XML setup file in the package"
I try to install the file on the link above but it didn't show any option to format articles. Also I looked at the article about the topic but I can't find the imagmap in any folder.
I'm using joomla 1.5 and the tinymce which come with joomla there are few option for formatting. I'm using JCE but it didn't have a multimedia option.
I would like some help, please
Thanks
Suttie

Has anyone come up with a simple solution to installing Tiny MCE yet? I'm new to CMS and find that the learning curve is steeper than I thought. I've picked up a couple of things but it's very slow going. The wysiwyg will help me set up pages faster while I learn the underlying mechanics. What is the most current information?

Thanks

P.S. I have read all the posts I can find on this subject, but I'm still very confused

I'm also not seeing the editor though it seems to install ok and I get the option in the drop downs for the editors. How could I potentially debug this so that the editor shows. I can see the tinymce3.php is being run - the editor isnt showing however.
