Matt Bridges Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 It's ridiculous that CKEditor isn't supported properly on an iPad/iPhone/iPod - CKEditor supports the iTouch range of devices out of the box. Similarly relying on the browsers in built spellchecker...... not very user friendly! What is the rational behind not supporting these two features?
Hexsplosions Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 I use the editor on iPad and iPhone. What's the problem?
Matt Bridges Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 An out of the box IPBoard installation specifically disables the CKEditor toolbars and controls for any iTouch device.
Jυra Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 relying on the browsers in built spellchecker...... not very user friendly!Why is that not user friendly?
Jυra Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 My browser already has a big set of words that I have it remember as correct.
Mark Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 We had it enabled but we got a lot of bug reports about things which are just limitations of how the editor can work on iOS devices. For example, if you highlight something, the iOS bubble which gives you copy/paste options often covers up the buttons on the editor, which is probably why you highlighted the post. I'm hoping to re-examine this for 4.0.
Matt Bridges Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 Mark - is there a way to enable it so I can trail it for our users? They're crying out for this functionality.
Dave Foster Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Can I just echo this comment please, I would rather have the control myself to enable the function than have it disabled - I have recently upgraded one forum from 3.1.4 which did support this (and now doesnt), there's no way I can upgrade my main forum without this functionality... catch 22 for me.
CADguru Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 I already created another thread on this - until Support told me about this one. Agreeing with the above - with the sad increase in iOS use, this is not something that can be dismissed as "we'll fix it later/in 4.0" If you are insistent on that point, can you please point me in the direction of re-enabling it for iOS use, and we will debug it ourselves.

CADguru Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 So I have to let our userbase suffer till "later this year". Can I enable this in the interim - bugs or not?
Michael Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 If you want instructions on things you can try to enable it, you'd need to post in the appropriate technical support forums.
