pmwiki:wysiwyg_editing
Pmwiki provides a wysiwyg editor as a plugin. This editor is based on the FCKeditor available as a seperate open source tool.
This isn't what they say on their site. It is very difficult and unstable to install a wysiwyg editor and it isn't FCKeditor but another editor.
It's FCKeditor (easy to install!) but an older version. The problem is that it's supporting without problems only basic wiki syntax.
PmWiki DOES NOT support wysiwyg and is very clear about it. If you are looking for wysiwyg look at something else. I tried the plugin but it DOESN'T work.
Agreed. Do not be fooled by the FCKeditor page at pmwiki.org, as it is obsolete, and never really worked properly in the first place.
