 * Has anyone had any luck in getting [TinyMCE](http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/) to
   integrate properly with WP 1.2.1?
    I figured out how to get the script call to
   show up in the header, as per the instructions, but then when I would try to 
   create a post, as soon as I tried to save it (with either simple or advanced)
   the text I typed would disappear, as if it had never been entered. If anyone 
   has any ideas, I’d be happy to hear them. Thanks! -ghp

 * There are some WYSIWYG plugins over [http://wiki.wordpress.org](http://wiki.wordpress.org)
   
   Have you tried it?

 * Yup, I’ve tried two others, so far — the FCKEditor-based plugin from [http://www.moiblog.com](http://www.moiblog.com),
   and the HTMLArea-based hack from [http://mudbomb.com/archives/2004/05/29/wysiwyg-hack-for-wordpress/](http://mudbomb.com/archives/2004/05/29/wysiwyg-hack-for-wordpress/)
   
   Unfortunately, neither has been completely satisfactory in terms of working 100%
   correctly and/or to my liking. TinyMCE was mentioned in [this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/10/16456)
   so I figured I’d give it a try. It was reasonably simple to get working, but 
   unfortunately had the posting glitch I mentioned above. -ghp

 * If anyone is curious I am running the latest CVS version of tinymce in 1.5. It
   took all of 2 minutes to integrate it in, and as of yet I have not yet had any
   problems with saving.
 * Haven’t tried the image support though.

 * Geoffrey: as it took only 2 minutes for you, it would be nice to share how you
   did it, if you can invest a couple more minutes to write a simple but efficient
   mini-tutorial and share it here it would be great. Thansk in advance for sharing
   😉

 * To integrate TinyMCE with WordPress (I tested it with WP 1.7), check this out:

 * I could make it work in 5 minutes following the readme.txt inside the zip. 10
   extra minutes to test it, find out an annoyance (when you press enter the scroll
   bar is focused at the top) and correct it: see Comment by Joe Schmoe â€? Apr.

 * TinyMCE is a very good WYSIWYG editor. Strange that I couldn’t find in the “one-
   click” plugins list.
 * So… good luck and enjoy.

 * Hello,
    Does anybody knows how… or where to look for a solution of embedding 
   ImageManager plugin (from HtmlArea) to TinyMCE – in such way that all that together
   could work in WordPress?

 * Am I right in thinking that that version of TinyMCE doesn’t support the advanced
   editing features such as paragraph and header selection (h1, h2, h3, etc.) as
   featured on the TinyMCE site
 * [http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/example_advanced.php?example=true](http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/example_advanced.php?example=true)
 * That would be most useful. (I wondered if it was an IE vs. Fx issue, but seemingly
   not.)
 * Also, when I tried it just now the h4 header worked fine when the post was displayed
   on the front page, but within the category listing view it had gone (although
   it was still there in the XHTML code!) Odd.

 * I quite like Tiny MCE, but I gave up on it because of a truncation problem. For
   some odd reason TinyMCE was inserting line breaks manually in my content, even
   though the textarea was breaking naturally several works later. It made all my
   content look narrow!
 * Regardless, getting TinyMCE to work with WP is terribly easy. I think it should
   be a part of core.

 * Further to my previous post about the advanced version of TinyMCE I forgot to
   say that I had already hacked the file `/wp-admin/quicktags.js` to include h3
   and h4 tags, as I required.
 * However, as I’m building this site for an organisation and the people who will
   be regularly updating the site aren’t _au fait_ with HTML a WYSIWYG solution 
   would be simpler for them.
 * I wonder if that WYSIWYG editor can be easily adapted. I’ll look into it at some
   point. At the moment I just want to get the site finished! What with (a) our 
   host switching off the server completely, and subsequently being most unhelpful
   in a switch (server and domain names) to another host, and (b) the client changing
   their collective mind about website specifications every few days (in over 80
   emails!!) we are now about 4-5 months behind schedule! If I do manage to alter
   it I’ll post back here.

 * If anyone comes up with a way to use this along with then wp-amazon plugin, please
   let me know! Everything works fine on the TinyMCE side, it’s just that the code
   for the Amazon link or image/link isn’t dropped into the textarea anymore so 
   I have to copy & paste by hand. Thanks,

 * I got it working v. easily. Nice! Although it takes just slightly too long to
   load for my liking, is there anyway to speed it up by stripping out unused options?
 * AND I just managed to hook it up to my install of Enhanced Simple PHP Gallery,
   so you can insert images from each gallery using the dropdown library menu in
   TinyMCE. (See [http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?id=808](http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?id=808)
   for info on configuring this library option).
 * Looks promising, and it means my Mum might be able to update her own website!
