I have just taken over a site developed some years ago which uses FCKeditor 2.1.1
It appears that the developer modified a number of files to disable or change the functionality of the editor, mainly in connection with the use of the file upload facility and the insertion of links and images into text. I can see which files were amended as he left a marker with each but I can't establish what he changed in each file. I don't have an original copy of the v2.1.1 files to compare against which would help.
To get over this I am trying to install a later version, v2.6.5, which seems to be working OK except in respect of the directory for uploads. I have amended the file ~/connectors/php/config.php as follows:
$Config['Enabled'] = true ;
$Config['UserFilesPath'] = '/documents/' ;
which are the same settings as the previous installed version. But although it now seems to recognise this directory it cannot find any of the files already uploaded. Is there some other change I need to make?
Any advice appreciated.
regards,
Mike

Re: File manager not finding files.
The easiest way to determine where FCKeditor is placing your files, or seeing them is to upload a test file. Try that and search the server. If documents is your default file location, the files should be located at the root location under documents.
On my home server I have installed FCKeditor, and by default it was using:
\htdocs\userfiles
as the root location even though I had installed the editor at
\htdocs\webcontent\libraries\fckeditor
I hope that helps...
