For most users of XOOPS, using the standard XOOPS Text Editor is not something they enjoy, especially when they are beginners. TinyMCE is more user friendly, so this tutorial will show the way to install it as a replacement of the default editor of XOOPS

1) Download the TinyMCE files from here

2) Having done so, copy the content of the folder to your main XOOPS directory.

3) Now we need to enable the TinyMCE editor

BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE, PLEASE BACKUP THE FILE :

/class/xoopsform/formdhtmltextarea.php

To make it work, now simply edit the original file:

class/xoopsform/formdhtmltextarea.php

on around line 74 from this:


to this:



After saving the file, the installation is now successfully completed.

Remember to do the change again, if you update/upgrade XOOPS to a new version.
