after upgrade tinymce dialogs show variable names instead of text

Hi - i just upgraded from 1.2.8 to 1.3 and now I have an issue with tinyMCE dialogs. The link dialog, for example, come up with variable names like {#zenphoto_dlg.link_title} instead of text like "Make a Link" or whatever it normally says. Every parameter appears like this. Here's an example screenshot. Using English language. Site hosted on 1and1. Happens in both safari 5.0 and firefox on mac.

I found this - http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?pid=35628 - which suggested it might be a .htaccess problem, but mine is the same as the install template for zp 1.3. Also I can access the file at zp-core/zp-extensions/tiny_mce/themes/advanced/js/link.js which that post suggested as the problem.

This is not a serious problem at the moment, as it only affects me and I know what each of the options in the dialog does anyway, but if this was to happen to the zp installation of one or the less computer-literate people I sometimes make sites for, they would be completely confused.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

  • Did you try the modification noted in that link? We are not seeing this, so cannot test it. Also please try the nightly build. I believe it has an updated version of TinyMCE.

    No, this is actually a small bug in 1.3. We used for the albums/images editing a custom tinymce theme and there somehow was a issue with the language files.

    In the coming 1.3.1 release this has been fixed (already in the nightly build if you want to try). TinyMCE then will be also a real plugin, supporting custom configuration files.
  • Thanks! Will try nightly when i get a chance and report back.
  • Problem solved. Fantastic!

    But - I had to disable and then re-enable the tinyMCE plugin, otherwise none of the editors were tinyMCE enabled - as if the plugin being on didn't register after the upgrade (except in the plugins and options > plugin tabs, where it appeared to be on). So maybe there is still something not quite right with the initialization of the new tinyMCE plugin setup when upgrading from the old non-plugin version?

    best,

  • Except now image thumb cropping adjustment does not stick when I press save. Tested on Safari or Firefox. Always something I guess…

    Yes, sorry, the plugin needs to be disabled and reenabled. Not sure why, probably a glitch because of the former extra option for that. We will note that on the changelog for 1.3.1...

    Regarding the custom thumb cropping. Themes like the Zenpage theme may override that with custom settings on the theme directly. But it seems that it indeed is not working generally anymore.. Will open a ticket...
  • An error in the "set" state default--the plugin was not set to load on the back-end[sic]. That will be corrected in the nightly tonight. However, anyone who has already installed the nightlys before this change will have to do a save on the plugin page.
