CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Okay, I've got CiviCRM 3.1.3 running well in a Drupal 6.16 installation. I'm setting up my first CiviContribute form for the client, a self-serve membership form.

Under admin > global settings > site preferences I have CKEditor chosen for the WYSIWYG editor.

I go to Contributions > Contribution Pages > Manage Contributions > configure > Titles and Settings. The textareas for Introductory Message and Footer Message are missing in the form. Huh.

I go back to admin > global settings > site preferences, and select "Textarea" for the editor. I return to the Titles and Settings page and there's the textarea.

To experiment, I go back to site preferences and select TinyMCE, go back to the Titles and Settings page, and now there's...kind of a weird looking text area. The formatting is different than the straight textarea (per the previous paragraph), and there's a gray bar where the TinyMCE editing tool is obviously supposed to go. But it's not there.

So my choices are:

Textarea that appears to work just fine without a WYSIWYG editor
Textarea with space for a WYSIWYG editor but no editing buttons
A missing textarea

The Resource URLS are all correct. There's no example.com/www.example.com issue. The Directory Path and URL are correct. I'm not sure how to proceed from here. Help!

You might wanna upgrade to 3.1.5 and check whether the problem still persists.

might want to check the ckeditor forums. that project is moving at a fast rate and they come out with updates and fixes quite quickly, IMO

OKAY! This is fixed. I'm posting for posterity.

I did not know that IE6/7/8 have a hard cap of about 31 loaded CSS files. While the rest of my site is just under that load, adding CiviCRM bumped it up just over 31. For development reasons I had .css compression turned off in Drupal. When I turned it on, that dropped the # of .css files being loaded, so now CiviCRM is able to load CKEditor's .css file.
