  • This only happens when setting up CKEditor using the following properties on portal-ext.properties:
  • editor.wysiwyg.default=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-impl.portlet.ddm.text_html.ftl=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.portlet.announcements.edit_entry.jsp=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.portlet.blogs.edit_entry.jsp=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.portlet.mail.edit.jsp=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.portlet.mail.edit_message.jsp=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.portlet.message_boards.edit_message.bb_code.jsp=ckeditor_bbcode
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.portlet.message_boards.edit_message.html.jsp=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.taglib.ui.discussion.jsp=ckeditor
    editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.taglib.ui.email_notification_settings.jsp=ckeditor
