- Description
The WYSIWYG editor removes some syntax from the page. Such as "~np~...~/np~". It also converts characters, which are specified with the "~NNN~" syntax to ordinary characters.
To reproduce:
- Create a new page with the non-WYSIWYG editor.
- Enter "~np~! XX~/np~"
- Save the page. It shows up as intended: "! XX"
- Open the page and switch to the WYSIWYG editor.
- Click on "Save". Now the "XX" shows up as a heading.
- Open the page again and switch to the non-WYSIWYG editor. The "~np~" and "~/np~" parts have vanished.With quoted characters, such as "~033~" it's similar. They get converted to non-quoted characters when the page is opened in the WYSIWYG editor and are saved that way when the page is saved.
This bug makes the WYSIWYG editor next to unusable.
- Solution
Jonny Bradley wrote on tikiwiki-users:
"Yes, WYSIWYG doesn't work well with some "advanced" wiki syntax, best to use the wiki editor if you want non-parsed sections etc. Have you found the wysiwyg plugin? You can make one (or more) part/s of the page WYSIWYG editable and edit the "tricky" bits in wiki markup elsewhere.
"We are planning (should have started ;) an upgrade/replacement of the wysiwyg editor in tiki for 25+ and a gradual switch to markdown syntax over the next few versions, so there isn't likely to be much effort going into fix the legacy CKEditor now i'm afraid."
