Hi,

Just an update. I reinstalled the extension. I can see the edit toggle on/off but I don’t see any edit button at all.

Module editing still doesn’t work on http://www.r-o-p-e-soffice.com

Is there something wrong with the edit icon itself? JCE? (thebuffalogroup).

Thanks so much for your help.

Linda.

@Calle, Terry

Looks like you’re using PHP 4. Unfortunately, parts of the code are dependent on PHP 5.

Anyways, you can go ahead and do the following:

Open up ‘plg_articleeditor/articleeditor.php’ and go to line 41 and replace:

function onBeforeDisplayContent(&$article, &$params, &$limitstart)

with

function onBeforeDisplayContent($article, $params, $limitstart)

Let me know if this works.

I’m having trouble. On one site (www.thebuffalogroup.com, hosted by GoDaddy), I can’t get your extension to work at all. JCE works on the backend but the editor icon doesn’t work on the frontend.

On my other side (www.r-o-p-e-soffice.com, hosted by iPage), I got it to work in terms of editing articles but can’t get the module popup editor to work. I don’t see any icons next to the menu items.

Can you point me in the right direction? What do you need to know about my site/files in order to help me?

Thanks so much! Very frustrated. I need to provide an editing solution to my client that doesn’t make them go into Joomla’s administrator backend.

Linda.

Thanks

Hi,

I just installed an extension named Front End Editor. It comes up with an error
Code:
PHP Warning: Parameter 3 to plgContentArticleeditor::onBeforeDisplayContent() expected to be a reference, value given in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\staff-intranet-dev\libraries\joomla\event\event.php on line 67
once I enable the plugin plg_articleeditor.

Has anyone else had this problem? How do you fix it?

It seems there is an issue with JEvents. But I am not sure.

I am wanting to use Front End Editor to allow my staff to edit menu items from the frontend. Is there another extension I can use or can someone help me with a fix for Front End Editor.

Thanks.

I am having the same problem as a couple of earlier users in that my default edit icons have all disappeared – as they should, but there are no edit icons showing at all anymore. I get the ‘turn editing on/off’ toggle but no option to edit any content items or modules anywhere save one exception which is the home page content. There is an edit icon on home page – but oddly, not on other menu items that display the exact same content page. Did anyone get anywhere with this problem. I have no modules on the pages showing anything but html.

Hi,

I have a peculiar problem.. I cannot install the component on one of the site. And if I do a manual install [unzip n push all files in /tmp] i get the error: Please enter a package directory

Is there a way I can manually install the entire thing. not sure if there is some issue on my server

Perhaps you should try posting on the Joomla! forums? http://forum.joomla.org/ . I’m not sure what might be causing the problems.

I’m having the exact same problem. I can’t get the article editor to work either! I am using a template created in Artisteer – could this be anything to do with it?
