I’m looking for some advice on the > recommended way to do so. I’ve added TinyMCE using the tinymce\_filter extension, but it had to do a few fixes to get it to work correctly. Even then, I’m not particularly happy with TinyMCE or FCKEditor. They never quite do what you want and I often have to hand edit the HTML they generate. I just came across WMD myself and I’m very interested in it. Was going to try to add it to the admin interface myself, but haven’t had the time yet. – J Aaron F.

There are no Weapons of Mass Destruction in Radiant. 😉 I found the best way to integrate WYSIWYG editors is to use a JavaScript DOM/window load callback to replace the text areas. FCK, and IIRC, TinyMCE have this ability, as should most. Sean ---

Ooh, WMD’s gone MIT licensing. Now this is nice to see. One more thing to play with… -Chris ---

Which leads to the inevitable… WMD?? When I do a search for them, I’m getting a 404 File Not Found. How odd. ---

I’ve used WYMeditor. I like the interface a lot, and my clients like it too. It was a real pain to figure out what files to edit in order to widen/lengthen the textarea and remove unneeded buttons (all these WYSIWYGs are code-bloated), but I finally figured it out. I plan to add this info to the summer reboot documentation. - Dave ---
