Creating a custom module - no editor

Post by Rik Brown » Fri Apr 12, 2024 6:15 pm

I'm trying to create a custom module in Joomla 4.4.3. However, the editor never shows up.

I've tried all the editor options in Global Configuration > Site > Default Editor. Nothing changes.

I'm attaching an image from a prior custom module. The moment that module loads, I can see the previously written code which is then instantly removed and changed to: "This module allows you to create your own Module using a WYSIWYG editor." But, there is no way to edit there.

I get the same result if I try to create a new custom module.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Could be a JavaScript bug. Open your browser Developer Tools and see if anything is reported when you reload the page.

Yes, I went to Firefox and found one file was not returning a not-found message on reload. A re-installation appears to have fixed the matter.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
