Question

Hi,

I recently upgraded the WYSIWYG plugin from v. 12422 to v. 17358 (07 Aug 2008)

(
<LINK href="/pub/TWiki/KupuContrib/kuputwiki.css" type=text/css rel=stylesheet>
) 

This upgrade got rid of those. No problem.

But my issue now is, that with the old version, html comments would not be displayed in the WYSIWYG editor; you would only see them in the regular Twiki editor.

Now they are displayed in the WYSIWYG editor as well, and users are getting confused.

For example, I've got several pages with topic security settings, that used to be hidden in the WYIWYG editor:

<!--
*DO NOT Delete the information below!*
     * Set ALLOWTOPICVIEW = Main.TWikiAdminGroup, Main.ITOfficersGroup, Main.CsSalonManager, Main.CsChiefAccountant
-->

And yes, even though it says DO NOT DELETE ... a user deleted it (he thought it looked messy and was cleaning up the page!), and removed the page security

I see settings to stop the WYSIWYG editor from editing files containing certain tags, but I can't find any setting to just hide them.

Can someone tell me how I can hide things like this?

Hiding INCLUDE statements would also be very nice. I think these did not display before either, but I can't be sure.

Thanks!

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

The Kupu editor integration is no longer supported. The latest TWiki uses the TinyMCE.

You can "hide" preferences settings in the topic preferences to prevent from accidental deletions: Go to "more topic actions", then to "edit topic preferences settings". In that screen, set the ALLOWTOPICVIEW as you would in the topic itself, such as:

• Set ALLOWTOPICVIEW = Main.TWikiAdminGroup, Main.ITOfficersGroup
