Unicode error with autoedit, and formredlink
Hi, I'm having a "It appears that your browser does not support Unicode. It is required to edit pages, so your edit was not saved. " error when trying to use autoedit and formredlink. Specific correction for MW 1.30 in PF_FormPrinter.php only solved gui form editing error. Standard page edition with text including formredlink with "create page" option doesn't even save content. Please help! Steph.

Possible Solution
I too was seeing that error message with an autoedit, but it had nothing to do with what the actual problem was. The problem for me was that the target page did not already exist. If I make certain that the target page exists before clicking the autoedit, I do not get the error. Sounds like a bug to me.
 * hi, Same for me, but it is new behaviour: autoedit used to create page on the fly, which was very effective. And since the disappearance of "create pages with form", and exception raised by formredlink+create page, it leaves me with no automatic page creation capability. Steph.

Multi Instance fields - parser functions only parse once.
Mediawiki 1.29 I have an uploadable field in a multiple template which I would like to auto-generate filenames to ensure they are unique. I thought using the page name with a timestamp would be simple enough, but the timestamp doesn't update when you "Add Another".

I have also tried: Similar results except that it does increment once. First filename gets a 1. When I "Add Another" the filename there gets a 2, and all added after that remain 2. Is there a way to ensure each uploaded file is unique regardless of the incoming filename. I thought this approach should work, but clearly I'm missing something. Thanks. Paul


 * I'm aware of the issues resulting from multiple-instance templates only being parsed once, and I don't know of a solution for them, unfortunately. Yaron Koren (talk) 03:02, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Is there another way to do what I'm trying to do? A way to generate unique filenames in a multiple-instance template? Any workaround suggestions are welcome. Thx.

(SOLVED) Upload file field gives blank page
Hi Yaron, I'm running MW 1.30 (http://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/Special:Version) using your PageForms (latest version). It operates great with Cargo and Sementic Mediawiki except for the 'Upload file' function. It was working well running MW1.29 with an older PageForms version but after updating I get a blank page as soon as I try to upload a file, see screenshot. . Any idea what might cause that? Happy new year, --Albert Ke (talk) 17:34, 3 January 2018 (UTC) Ps.1 File upload function MediaWiki provides standard works fine. Ps.2 Same result when using chrome or Safari


 * Please see this page for how to get error messages, instead of blank pages, to be displayed. Yaron Koren (talk) 02:25, 4 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you Yaron, and good point, but I have the 'get error messages print to screen' always on using last lines in LocalSetting.php:

error_reporting( E_ALL ); ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 );


 * And I wish there where but no error message shows up, also not in the web log files. Any idea / hint more than welcome!

--Albert Ke (talk) 19:37, 4 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Oh, okay. Does the JavaScript console in the browser show any errors? Yaron Koren (talk) 22:39, 4 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Never mind - I was able to reproduce this problem. It's a JS bug due to the jump in the jQuery version, to 3.0, in MW 1.30. I just checked in a fix for this, so if you get the very latest code, the problem should go away. Yaron Koren (talk) 04:08, 5 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Awesome, thank you for the quick fix Yaron! Problem solved with the latest fix. Much appreciated! --Albert Ke (talk) 14:46, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Multi Instance Forms Within Form Not Working
I had updated PageForms the other day via git and didn't notice any issues, but I was reported that the buttons to create a multi instance form do not bring up the form. If an instance already exists it shows up but can't add. I updated to mediawiki 1.30 just in case it was a version mismatch issue and the problem persists. Page with the Form, the Form --Cody3647 (talk) 22:42, 12 January 2018 (UTC)


 * The fact that this is a public wiki makes debugging a lot easier. Clearly this is a JavaScript problem. Your form appears to have two JS errors, either of which may be blocking the "Add another" button from working:
 * The problem described here, with WikiEditor
 * The importScript calls not working in MediaWiki:Common.js


 * I would try removing "editor=wikieditor" from the form, and if that doesn't fix the problem, simplifying MediaWiki:Common.js. If neither of those fixes the problem, let me know. Yaron Koren (talk) 23:29, 12 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Removing the wikieditor worked, though I do like having it. And I fixed the other error as well. --Cody3647 (talk) 01:10, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

input type "tokens" no longer working
After the update to 4.2.1 the input type tokens is no longer working on a MW 1.27.4. After rolling back to 4.2.0 things a fine again. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 20:51, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm guessing that this is actually an unrelated JavaScript error. If you look in the browser console, do you see any error messages? Yaron Koren (talk) 22:03, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Just had a look at console:

 * Stack trace:

I hope this helps debugging. Cheers --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 22:21, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Hm, somewhat. Does the problem with "tokens" go away if you disable the Lingo extension, or if you switch from the Foreground skin to Vector? If neither of those fixes the problem, could you add "?debug=true" to the page and let me know what the error message is? Yaron Koren (talk) 22:29, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Disabling Lingo and Semantic Glossary does not change a thing, neither does using Vector. When adding "&debug=true" I am getting https://example.org/w/vendor/onoi/shared-resources/res/jquery.qtip/extended/jquery.qtip.js?18428". --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 22:47, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Alright. What's the full error message? Yaron Koren (talk) 23:17, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * That's all I get in error console. :( --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 23:21, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Adding "debug=true" to the URL made the error message go from 10 lines to a single URL? Yaron Koren (talk) 23:38, 24 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Affirmative and as stupid it may sound. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 09:58, 25 January 2018 (UTC) PS That's how I constructed the call to the page: https://example.org/w/index.php?title=PageName&action=formedit&debug=true Turning error reporting on in "LocalSettings.php" does not help either.


 * Alright. I probably should have asked this before, but: with "debug=true" in the URL, does the original problem still happen? My guess is no, given that there's no actual error message any more. Yaron Koren (talk) 15:04, 25 January 2018 (UTC)


 * The issue is still there. No tokens. I have no idea why console remains silent. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 23:49, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

That's strange, okay. If you temporarily disable all the extensions except for Page Forms, is the problem still there? Yaron Koren (talk) 23:59, 25 January 2018 (UTC)


 * I did not see your post till yesterday since I was busy with other stuff. If I just use PageForm it works so I disabled possible candidats and pinned down the WikiEditor extension as the one causing input type tokens to fail. Cheers --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 17:28, 8 February 2018 (UTC) PS I have been told that input type "datepicker" is affected, too. On the respective wikis I rolled back to 4.1.2 to restore these features.


 * Ah, WikiEditor - great find. So it's the same issue as the question above this, more or less. I'll have to look into why WikiEditor handling broke. Yaron Koren (talk) 19:03, 8 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Indeed, my first suspect was MobileFrontend, the second one was HeaderTabs and the third one WikiEditor was it in the end. The error console was completely empty. :| --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 20:14, 8 February 2018 (UTC)


 * I have seen tokens not displayed because of the extension Extension:FancyBoxThumbs Nicolas NALLET Wiki-Valley.com, Semantiki.fr (talk)

This is on and off creating issues even with earlier versions, too. I migrated away from tokens. Hopefully it will be a stable feature at some point. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 12:13, 3 March 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm not aware of any issues with tokens - other than a Firefox-only problem that was fixed about a month ago. So I assume again that this is some unrelated JS issue. Yaron Koren (talk) 19:59, 6 March 2018 (UTC)


 * I get mails about tokens not working pretty frequently. However if I test it always works. I suspect some clients failing to interact with tokens. Probably I should start asking for acesss information. Moreover it does no longer work in the recent version which killed this input type completely. :( Keeping fingers crossed for a fix. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 21:01, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Well, I can't fix a problem I'm not aware of, and I don't know what this problem you're talking about is. But maybe someone else will fix it, whatever it is. Yaron Koren (talk) 22:58, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * That's true. With fixing stuff I meant the real big issue in conjunction with WikiEditor. The rest is currently not a big concern I guess. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 23:14, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Oh, okay. Yaron Koren (talk) 02:48, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Sorry for jumping in like that but I get the same exact error message. I can not reproduce the error with. For me it looks like a timing issue. I would appreciate if anybody could help figuring this out. --Mojoaxel (talk) 14:48, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Are you using the latest version, 4.3? If not, I would recommend upgrading - this issue might have been fixed. Yaron Koren (talk) 14:50, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

About "formredlink"_parser_function
This is still happening in 4.2.0 and 4.2.1 which is a pretty big issue since I have to remove superflous content from many pages. I am using the following syntax to create the page:

On the glossary page created not only the  template gets added but also the whole content of the originating page. Sometimes I have up to 6 edits creating the missing page. In the following example I got 3 edits:

 * I think the reason is that the form that adds the template contains a field of input type textarea which probably leads it to believe that someing must automatically be added. The superfluous text however is not added within the template but below it where one usually places the free text field. In this case there is however not free text field. The field within the form looks like

#forminput: Restrict list of forms
Hi,

I'm using #forminput for providing a form to create new pages. I want the user to choose from a list of available forms. However, I have a number of query forms in my wiki that I don't want to show up in the list of available forms for content creation. AFAIU, the current syntax neither allows for defining a fixed list of available forms nor restricting the kind of form to be shown to the user:

 - the name of the PF form to be used; if it is left empty, a dropdown will appear, letting the user choose among all existing forms

Is there a workaround for this problem? I'd like to have something similar as.

Best regards, Frank

Nakohdo (talk) 12:38, 30 January 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm hoping to add in a feature soon that would allow "form=" to take in a list of values, which would manually populate a dropdown - would that be good enough for you? Yaron Koren (talk) 14:11, 30 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi Yaron, Thanks for the quick reply. And yes, allowing to pass a list to the  parameter would be perfect. Nakohdo (talk) 08:29, 2 February 2018 (UTC)


 * This is now done, in the latest code. Yaron Koren (talk) 20:56, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

(SOLVED) Issue with combobox, using Firefox browser
Hi Yaron, all,

It looks like there might be an issue, using input type "combobox" in a PageForm in combination with the browser 'Firefox' (chrome, safari work fine). The combobox comes with suggestions when start typing but when selecting a suggestion, it doesn't close the drop list. It does populate the field but then the drop list stays open, blocking the fields below and the rest of the form becomes unresponsive and you have to close the browser to get out of it.

This behavior occurs on forms that have been around for years, and was indicated by users of our website and I was able to recreate the problem (see image) using the latest firefox version. Seems to start occurring after MW & extensions update.

Any idea how to solve this? Thanks, --Albert Ke (talk) 16:26, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

 * PageForms 4.2 (dbbce11) 01:22, 5 January 2018

 * Hi Albert - yes, I see the problem too. It's been a long time since I last did any MediaWiki testing with Firefox. Do you know what versions of MediaWiki and Page Forms you were doing before the upgrade? And could the issue be recent changes to Firefox browser? I know they just had a big release (version 58, about a week ago) that included a lot of changes. Or is it definitely due to the MW upgrade? Yaron Koren (talk) 19:34, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Yep, Firefox isn't my favorite browser either. Looks like older Firefox versions have the same problem, I still have version 22 on an old mac and that gives the same problem (see figure). For earlier versions of MW, PF, etc: MW 1.29.latest release (not sure what that was); SMW: 2.5.4; PF, 2.4.0 (installed late December).




 * PF 2.4.0? Are you sure about that? That's from 2012. Yaron Koren (talk) 21:55, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Ooops, numbers switched around, PF 4.2.0. Thanks, --128.138.65.73 15:40, 1 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Great, that helped a lot in narrowing it down. The problem turned out to be a code change I made in November. I just checked in a fix for this, which you can see here. Yaron Koren (talk) 17:31, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you Yaron!; I checked out the new version and the combobox issue is solved for firefox. Thank you so much for the prompt fix! --Albert Ke (talk) 20:36, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

#default_form not working properly
This topic is a continuation of one from December. When creating a new page that has a default_form, I would expect edit-with-form to know, which form it is right away. But it isn't. When clicking I get the "menu" of all available forms in my wiki. The root cause lies in the created jobs that are not yet executed. After creating the page showJobs shows this; htmlCacheUpdate: 1 queued; 0 claimed (0 active, 0 abandoned); 0 delayed recentChangesUpdate: 1 queued; 0 claimed (0 active, 0 abandoned); 0 delayed refreshLinksPrioritized: 1 queued; 0 claimed (0 active, 0 abandoned); 0 delayed

After running the "refreshLinksPrioritized" job and clicking on the edit-with-form link the right form will open.

Unfortunately it does not matter whether the default-form is defined This issues started to happen after we moved from MW 1.23 to MW.1.27.
 * in the page itself
 * in a template called by the page
 * for the page's category

@Yaron, do you think it is possible to fix this in PageForms at all or are we stuck with this (due to MW's jobs design).

Thanks Emwiemaikel (talk) 09:18, 2 February 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm rather surprised that putting #default_form in a page and in a category page (your 1st and 3rd options) now require a job in order to work. But given that, I don't know if anything can be done in the Page Forms code to change the situation. Yaron Koren (talk) 00:06, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Forms to create spreadsheet like pages
I don't know if this is possible, but I would like to create a form to generate pages similar to spreadsheet. E.g. I want to describe the workflow of a digitization of a book; the page generated by the form will be the name of the book; this page should contain a table in which each column header is a property and all the values listed in the columns are property values. Each row should be generated by a form. E.g. the book Alice in wonderland is composed by 10 pages; I want to add information such as 'Name' (property type: Page), 'Digitization' (property type: Boolean (this is a yes/no field), Uploaded (property type: Boolean (this is a yes/no field), Metadata (property type: Boolean (this is a yes/no field) for all the pages, that is something like the following: I read something about a Spreadsheet-style_editing but it is not very clear how it works. I could do this using wikitable (like in the example) but it is too difficult and not 'semantic' at all. Any ideas? Thanks!

or something like this
 * Yes, you should use spreadsheet-style editing. The first step is to create two templates, one for "Book" and one for "Page" (unless you have them already). Given that you are using SMW, within the "Page" template you need to call #subobject for all the properties, instead of just using regular property tags. Then, to create the form, you need to make "Page" a multiple-instance template, and add "|display=spreadsheet" to the "for template" tag. Getting all the data to look nice on the resulting page is another story, but first things first. Yaron Koren (talk) 14:32, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Yaron, thanks for your answer. I guess I am almost there, but there is problem with the subojects call. In the "Page" template should I have as many subobjects as properties or a unique subobject call? E.g. something like this

Or any of those?

Thanks, Loman87 (talk) 17:45, 9 February 2018 (UTC)


 * The former - one #subobject call. Yaron Koren (talk) 19:29, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry to bother you, but I have still an issue. The form seems ok and the spreadsheet is perfect for my need. Anyway after I have filled the 'Book' form and the 'Page' spreadsheet form, the data of latter is not saved (nor displayed on the page, nor using the browse properties tool). So, I guess, there is still something wrong with the template containing the subobject call. Other than the subobject call, does the template have to host something else? Thanks for your patience...Loman87 (talk) 15:31, 10 February 2018 (UTC)


 * I think the issue is that #subobject is being called with a name - personally, I'm not even really sure why they made that an option. Instead, you should make it nameless, by having the call look like "{{#subobject:-|Name=...|Leaf=...". Yaron Koren (talk) 02:31, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Still not working, I guess I am giving up :( Thanks for your help Yaron. One last question: is it possible to do the same stuff using Cargo? -- Loman87 (talk) 10:12, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Adding an unnamed subobject will be  and not   --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 12:22, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry, my mistake. Kghbln - thanks for the correction. But yes, this can be done with Cargo too. Yaron Koren (talk) 14:39, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you both for your help! Anyway I guess there is an issue with the spreadsheet format, since if I do not use it everything works fine. If used, data added to the spreadsheet are not saved. --Loman87 (talk) 13:48, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

Oh... you meant that, when you use a spreadsheet display, the templates themselves are not saved on the page? Yaron Koren (talk) 16:52, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, I meant that. Loman87 (talk) 07:51, 19 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Oh - from your previous description, I thought the problem was with data storage, not wikitext creation. If possible, could you pastebin the form definition with "display=spreadsheet" (that's all that's needed), and link to it here? Also, what version of Page Forms are you using? Yaron Koren (talk) 23:44, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry Yaron, I am not a specialist so, since I didn't see neither anything saved in a wiki-table nor in the SMW properties, I thought the problem was related to data creation. Anyway, you can look at the form definition here and at the templates called here and here. In my last attempt to suceed, I finally used Cargo for the template creation (but also this doesn't work: from here my guess that something goes wrong with the spreadsheet format). My MW version is 1.27.4 and PageForms 4.2.1. Thanks for your help! Loman87 (talk) 08:06, 20 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Oh, I didn't know this was a public wiki. Would it be possible to get a user account on this wiki? That would make debugging a lot easier. If you make yaron57@gmail.com the account email address, I can set the password, etc. Yaron Koren (talk) 16:20, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Just did it. Thanks again for your help! Loman87 (talk) 17:00, 20 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Yes, thank you. For me, the form seems to work fine - I didn't save any pages, but I can see what the output would be with the page preview. Could it be that you're just not pressing "+" after filling out a row? The spreadsheet interface is a little confusing, in that the top row is just an "adder", that's used to add actual rows below. Yaron Koren (talk) 17:49, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Ok, I am feeling dumb...I guess the 'issue' was exactly that one. Sorry for bothering you for so long and thanks for your patience! Loman87 (talk) 15:30, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

Okay, cool. It's not really your fault - there's some less-than-ideal interface design in the jsGrid library, which is what's being used. I should look into this at some point - it could be that just changing around some of the colors, or adding more text, could make things clearer. Yaron Koren (talk) 19:07, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

Datepicker regression
In the past I was able to use datepicker unmodified. We either enter dates in iso-date format e.g. 2018-02-10 or in german format e.g. 10.02.2018. Now datepicker creates us format 10/02/2018 and what is worse the results do not show up in the properties any more so we lose all information for date fields if we use datepicker. So it looks like we are forced to do according to: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Page_Forms/Input_types/Datepicker#Customization

$wgPageFormsDatePickerSettings['DateFormat'] = 'yy-mm-dd'; I'd prefer if ISO Dates would work out of the box at least when typed in. also yyyy-mm-dd did not work as expected - the 4 digit year would show twice! --WolfgangFahl (talk) 08:50, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

PF - Mandatory fields - HeaderTabs - issue: Empty field error gets hidden in tabs
Hi Yaron, all,

Not really a bug or anything but hoping to get some advise. When using mandatory fields in a form that uses the HeaderTabs extension and people forget to fill out a mandatory field on a previous tab, the form cannot be saved but the user doesn't see the error message in red next to the field "cannot be blank" either, as it is on a different tab than the save button. Is there any work around for that? For example, is it possible to get that error message next to the save button so the user knows he/she has to go back some tabs to find the empty field. Or would something like the "save and continue" option specified at the end of each tab be an option?

Thanks, --Albert Ke (talk) 18:07, 14 February 2018 (UTC)


 * I've seen that problem too - I don't know what a good solution is. Making the relevant tab(s) red, maybe? I don't know if adding "save and continue" buttons everywhere would be a good solution - it's worth a try. Yaron Koren (talk) 03:11, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I'll try the "save and continue" button in the coming days, see if that works. Other webforms sometimes have their 'save/submit' button grayed out as long as not all required fields are filled out. I'm not sure if that is easy to add to the code. When constructing a form, I can add text next to it, saying something like: 'make sure to fill out all required fields'. Probably that would mean that the 'save' button needs to check continuously if all requirements (mandatory fields) are met. Not sure if that is possible with the current structure of your code. Thanks, --Albert Ke (talk) 15:53, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Missing two listboxes... (part 2)
Hello, Sorry to reopen the "Missing two listboxes" topic. Yaron Koren asked «Do you still think "two listboxes" has advantages over "tokens"?"». Yes, I do! The difference between "two listboxes" and "tokens" is the same as between "text with autocomplete" and "combobox". Users prefer to select an item from a list rather than type it. Furthermore, "two listboxes" is better than the "listbox" input because users do not necessarily know that the control key allows to select several values ... So I vote for the introduction of the "two listboxes" input in the "Page Forms" extension. Please do, semantic master, millions (billions ?) of users humbly are asking you. By the way, great job Yaron for all your work! --Megajoule (talk) 15:35, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks, and I'm pretty sure my software doesn't have millions of users. :) What about "two listboxes" vs. "checkboxes"? Yaron Koren (talk) 16:01, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Hmm... Nice try but I'm not sure that "checkboxes" is the most appropriate input if you use "values from category=some category" whereas some category has millions (um, hundreds...) of pages... --Megajoule (talk) 22:27, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * I don't understand - would "two listboxes" work with hundreds of values? Yaron Koren (talk) 14:05, 11 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Yes, indeed. I've just tried a "two listboxes" input with 973 pages in the category. And it works perfectly. --Megajoule (talk) 18:00, 14 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Well, I should have worded it better. I'm not surprised that it works, it just seems very unwieldy to have a "two listboxes" input with hundreds of values, where you have to keep scrolling up and down to find different values. Do you really think "two listboxes" is easier to use than either "tokens" or "checkboxes" with that many values? Yaron Koren (talk) 18:18, 14 March 2018 (UTC)


 * The choice in "two listboxes" is restricted, which is often necessary : you can't type a "fanciful" value. And either you can go through the list or you can use the autocompletion field. This option makes it easy to fill a basket. In short, users like it. --Megajoule (talk) 21:42, 14 March 2018 (UTC)--

Oh yeah, I forgot that "two listboxes" had an autocompletion helper feature. Though I should note that in the "tokens" input you can use "existing values only" to prevent users from creating new values. But I'm curious about the last thing you said - "users like it". This is a lot to think about, because as far as I remember you're the first person who has asked for "two listboxes" to come back since it went away around September 2016 (even in the discussion you linked to, the person didn't really seem bothered by the switch to "tokens"). Without getting into too many details, roughly how many people have you heard expressing an opinion on this? Yaron Koren (talk) 00:30, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

 * After little search I found that I need Template:Switcher and MediaWiki:Common.js, still doesn't work tho, but hope I will find the problem soon --Tymek1988 (talk) 22:44, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

TinyMCE
Hi Yaron, hope all is good! I have just installed TinyMCE onto my development server, but I can't seem to figure out how to get it working on the Page Forms. Where do I place the "editor=tinymce"? I have tried in the form, or is it in the backend extension files?

Any help would be appreciated.

 * You have to put in the "field" tag in the form definition - it should work for any textarea input. Yaron Koren (talk) 12:55, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Brilliant, thank you. --Squeak24 (talk) 13:24, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
