JCE editor and K2 items

Hi,
Don't know if this is the right forum, but here's my problem.
I use the Creativity template and used the Quickstart install. Everything fine making alterations for my own website. I then installed the JCE-editor plugin, and there is this annoying thing: when I edit text (k2 items or categories) at first it is in a white box with black characters. After I typed some text the background is getting coloured and I can hardly see what I'm typing any longer. I guess it has something to do with the amount of characters I set to be used for introtext, I don't know actually. If this is the issue, can I change the background color to something more workable? Is this a Creativity issue? Is it a K2 issue? Is it a JCE issue? Please help, I have searched a lot but I just can't find anaything about this subject.

Hi

Please send me an access to joomla panel. I need to see it to tell what is the problem.

Hi teitbite, The attachment shows what it looks like. On the right of the pattern you see some text. The part of the text in the upper part has a white background, the part of the text below this is blue-ish.

Hi

I see how it looks like. But I need to see the acctuall problem in my browser so I can use developer tools and tell what is causing it and came up with a solution. That's why I need joomla panel access and a direct pointing to the article with this problem.

Hi, I sent you another email with a question I had with Akeeba Backup. I have that one solved... It was a limit in file size by my provider.

Hi

Please access file /components/com_jce/editor/tiny_mce/themes/advanced/skins/default/content.css and add this code at the end:

Code: Select all: html { background: none repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) !important; }

Ok I've found it
open layout.css from template CSS folder
add background: #fff !important; for HTML as follow

Code: Select all: html { border-bottom: 1px solid transparent; min-height: 100%; background: #fff !important; }

Hi

Ok. This looks correct. Thank You for shearing.

I was having this problem with an image showing in the background. I checked the JCE forum becasue the code edit did not seem to work. The solution there was simple and worked perfectly.

Here is the solution, https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/sup ... ound-image

There is a toggle in the JCE component configuration:

1. In the JCE Control Panel, click on the Editor Global Configuraiton button.
2. Set the Editor Style Reset option to Yes.
