452141 - Input format issues when editing existing posts

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Websites Graveyard :: spreadfirefox.com, defect)

Description

[Alix Franquet [:alix]]

When trying to edit the body of a group or a post (as a vanguard user), I get the following error:

"You must use the default input format when authoring a group node."

The only thing that seems to fix it is when I select plain text as the input format, which won't work for posts that need to be in full html.

This problem can be resolved by changing the default input format  to filtered html @ admin/settings/filters

Apologies if I have the wrong bug, but there are some issues with the group page -- no WYSIWYG editor.  You have to edit the HTML source code after you create a group.  This is the same thing with the adding an event and adding a comment.  This really makes it hard for users to create a cool group page and keep it relevant.

It also appears that group pages don't offer full HTML so we can embed video etc. Jay can provide more details.

I looked into the input types and OG settings and content types and can't figure out why this isn't work as it should.

There are 2 issues that might be related. First, I don't see the wysiwyg editor after creating a group (the editor is there when creating a new group).  So after the group is created, you can no longer edit the group page/node easily (must work in plaintext mode and edit the HTML markup)... which SUCKS!

The other thing is that you can't change the input type for a group node after you created it.  Even if I wanted to deal with HTML markup, I can't use all the tags I want because I can't change the setting to Full HTML... which also SUCKS!

So trying to edit a group page after creation is pretty much useless.  We really really need to get this fixed, since SFX is completely driven by OG and folks are creating groups all the time.

Hi Jay

I'll have a look at both of these  problems on stage as soon as the login problem is fixed they shouldn't be too difficult to resolve.

There is no FCKeditor appearing on stage at all presently although it looks to be configured correctly. Also after creating a group when i go back and try to alter the "input format" option there are no options available. Not sure what has happened here.

On my local server running a vanilla D5 install with the latest version of OG / FCK there are no problems in relation to FCK editor / Input formats . Can we get the latest versions of these modules on stage? i think then any residual problems will be theme related.

Hey there:  Not sure this is resolved yet :)

Let's all try this and have QA validate it.  

Alex:  Did you do something to resolve it?  And, if so, can we make sure it is pushed live when we relaunch the site?
