Core Description field doesn't show the editor:
[img



I found out, that the reason is in plugins/flexicontent_fields/textarea/textarea.php
Line about 177:
Code:
if (!$use_html) {

But core description field doesn't have this option, so it's always NO:

[img

-- This is configurable per Content Type via a parameter called "Hide HTML", so you can configure it there

It is sent via some code that resembles this (via fields class method):
if ( strlen($hide_html) )
$use_html = !$hide_html;

But this actually a bug , or at least wrong behavior

because default value for the parameter is "" (aka Use Global) but this parameter "Hide HTML" does not exist (as you said in Description field parameters) and thus the above code does not set it , and inside the textarea field it $use_html has a default of ZERO, and thus the effect that you see.

-- So, i will make these changes:
a. change use_html to default to 1 in textarea.php
b. also add inside core.xml the parameters :
hide_html, height
for the description field

thanks for report,
Regards

PS, currently decided to finish these before announcing new version to JED
1. Almost finished adding custom fields/custom HTML ability to related item / related item backlinks fields

2. Doing XDEBUG profiling to the code to find performance issues (found 2 important performance issues with image field which were fixed)

3. Mostly finished alternative FILTERS display (for text field) as:
a. Single Select Field
b. Single Text Field
c. Dual Select Field Range
d. Dual Text Field Range
e. Single Toggle Buttons
f. Multi Toggle Buttons

4. Add automatic download of languages packs
