HTML editor in text area CC6

Hello,
is there a way to get the wysiwyg editor in text area field in connectivity 6?

Thanks

Hi vismay,

Maybe by the next update!

For now you can call a Chronoforms section inside a form view in Connectivity: {chronoform.section:form_name/section_name}

Hi Max
What is the situation now regarding this issue?
​
I would like to use a wysiwyg editor.
​
I can see that the editor can be enabled in Functions-Custom code:
<i class="icon green write circular tooltipstered" onclick="jQuery.G2.tinymce.init('#id_textarea');" data-hint="Enable WYSIWYG editor"></i>
​
I tried to use this code in a formfield custom code field. But i got an error: jQuery.G2.tinymce is undefined
I suspect it is a path or permission issue?
Can you help with this issue?
​
Thank you
Amelia

Hi Amelia,
​
In the latest Connectivity update you can include a textarea from under the "Fields" group which can then be used as a text editor.

Hello thank you
I did include a textarea but I failed to make it as a text editor. The editor's menu does not appear only the box for the text.
I tried something similar to what is described here:
https://www.chronoengine.com/faqs/70-chronoforms/cfv5/5275-how-can-i-add-a-wysiwyg-editor-in-my-form
But I did not manage.
​
How can I do that?
Thank you
Amelia

Hi Amelia,
​
Connection > Views > Fields > Textarea > Settings > then enable the "Rich text editor" setting

Hi Max
Is there also a solution for textfields inside a Form?
there you did not have a Settings Tab....
​
this solution with a Custom Field (CC5 Solution updated) loads the Editor but it generates a second field and is not working very well:

jimport( 'joomla.html.editor' );
$editor = JEditor::getInstance(JFactory::getUser()->getParam("editor"));
echo $editor->display('IDofMyTextfield', $this->content, '550', '400', '60', '20', false);

Hi Proximate,
​
This is for v6 ? if yes then the just check the textarea settings, its the general tab.
​
Best regards

Hi Max
ahm, did we talk about the same?

​
i have a Textfield inside Form in Chronoconnectivity6 and would like to have a WYSIWYG Editor - or is it better to use ChronoForms to add / edit those Data?
​
Kind regards
Proximate

Hi Proximate,
​
You can use the textarea under the Fields group instead of the fields view for this.
​
Best regards

Hi Max
​
So i created a new field --> Textarea --> activated in General Tab the WYSIWYG Editor loaded this Textfield into the form with a Custom Element and {view:MyTextfieldName}
ok it renders the field - you can chenge the content but the WYSIWYG Editor is not visible (Default is JCE).
