Articles not saving

[Bec]

Thank you for the advice everyone, I will update this post once I have had a chance to try it out!

I have had a chance to play around with this again, I came to the decision that I'm just going to redo all of my articles as most of them have the html form code from www.emailmeform.com in them. 

I disabled my wysiwyg editor, have tried making a new article (has been saved in a category) i can paste the form code and it allows me to save but when it goes back into the screen and I try to make changes to the look (options at the bottom that appear after the first initial save) it wont allow me to save again. I have taken a screenshot of it so you can see what I am getting, the form code has a captcha image at the bottom and this always appear outside of the text box.....

Part of me is wishing I didnt upgrade, articles are a huge part of my site and its driving me batty!!

Bec have you read this post and replaced the file provided by Bloc?

Try this approach as it fixes the editor. You should then be able to turn your WYSIWYG editor back on.

Thank you! Missed that post. Seems to be working ok now, stuffs up my code a bit, by removing some of the form fields..... could this be something in tp causing the problem cause everything appears ok until after it is saved... the more you save the article the more of the code disappears

and this is how it should look

I have never had a problem with these forms until i upgraded tp.

Thanks for your help!!

The errors with <textarea> tags not working correctly has been a long standing problem.  When you are using textarea in php blocks or articles, there is a fix posted in this bug report ---> http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php/topic,24326.0.html

However, I can't find any fix for html articles and blocks.  Textarea tags was supposed to be fixed in the new editor and for TP beta 4, which is not yet available.  However, the link that Renegd gave you in the previous post is supposed to have fixed several things with the editor for users of TP Beta 3.  Whether it is working correctly for html articles and blocks is something I don't know, and if it isn't then Bloc may have to have another look at this.

I will post a link to this topic so Bloc can have a look at it.

Based on my experience I would say that fix Renegd gave me the link to has not fixed the html issue. Thanks again I look forward to another update!

Cheers!!

Bec,

Did you download the whizzywig.zip file attached to Bloc's first post in that topic ---> http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php/topic,28788.msg229572.html#msg229572

The file contained in that zip should fix the problems with the editor.  In his post, Bloc also mentions where the file needs to be copied to.

Hi,

Yes I did upload that file, just editing my old articles now using the editor and everything is working fine. It is only when I have the html form code that everything seems to stuff up, so must be something conflicting with the code.

BTW here is one of the codes used for the form just so you can see what I'm using. Like I said earlier in this post I never had a problem with these forms working before, it has only been since I upgraded.

Code Select Expand

<form method="post" action="http://www.emailmeform.com/fid.php?formid=251017" enctype="multipart/form-data" accept-charset="UTF-8">

It would seem the form code is still interfering with the actual admin screen form. I will try work out how to prevent this.
