Forum:Rich Text Editor not working in my wiki

Hello all,

I have created a personal wiki, but I cannot see the Rich Text editor, which seems to be the default one.

I have no configuration related to the editor in the Special:Preferences / Editor tab.

So how do I enable the RT Editor?


 * "Enable Rich Text Editing" should be the first checkbox under the "Editing" tab of Preferences. If it isn't there, you should use Special:Contact and ask why it isn't there. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 3:56 PM PST 17 Jul 2010

 * It appears a bit ambiguous as to whether you ar talking about a personal Wikia hosted Wiki or a personal Mediawiki installation ?, as the RTE is a Wikia enhancement of the basic MediaWiki code I believe. On Wikia its is normally enabled by default, for all new Wiki's and existing ones since launch unless it was 'turned off by request' so a call to support via Special:contact from the Wikia Wiki in question may be best to get a staff member to have a look it (as Fandyllic says above now). If its a 'Private Mediawiki installation it would need adding on (if it has been released as an extension / update, some of the code developers on here may know more about how to do that ?) - BulldozerD11 23:05, July 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * If this request is about a non-Wikia personal wiki, it shouldn't be posted here. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 3:31 PM PST 19 Jul 2010
