TinyMCE Not Showing

After updating Big Tree to the latest version, TinyMCE appears to not be working as it is not showing inside of HTML Area inputs on the admin side. Examining the JS shows that TinyMCE 4.5 is being loaded and not the 6.2 like the release notes specify. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

TinyMCE's cache is notoriously sticky. If clearing browser's cache doesn't work then it's likely a custom override somewhere that's telling BigTree to use a different version of TinyMCE.

Hey Tim,

Thanks for the quick response! I realized that I was confusing the TinyMCE version number with the BigTree Version number that gets appended to the TinyMCE JS request. Looks like TinyMCE 6.2 has been being loaded this whole time.

The HTML Area inputs however still do not show any TinyMCE buttons or GUI elements. The text inside is plain text HTML.

Thanks!

Re: TinyMCE Not Showing

If you're using a custom HTML loader in /custom/admin/layout/_html-field-loader.php then you'll likely need to update the TinyMCE init to use TinyMCE 6's selector structure.

You can compare the files in 4.4-devel and 4.5-devel to see what's changed in their init (and plugins):
