RichWidget fails to format text in view mode

by Mikko Ohtamaa — last modified Dec 30, 2008 03:08 PM
RichWidget doesn't format text in view mode but displays it as plain text

This can also be seen with Kupu editor which doesn't work propeply. The formatting code isn't present at view mode, but it's still displayed in edit mode.

Cause

You have upgraded your Plone, but didn't run portal_migration migration tool. If I recall correctly, this was between Plone 2.1.1 and Plone 2.1.2.
PortalTransforms is reinstalled and there is some changes to transform code for HTML.

Solution

Run migration tool. Back up Data.fs before that.
