Wysiwyg not displaying correctly within repeatable group.

[robinwkurtz]

Sorry if this is a repeat issue, I will look further into myself now.

I'm having problems with Wysiwyg text areas displaying properly when adding a new group. Generally on reload of the page it will display fine, but in this particular care I only have wysiwyg fields in the group so the group does not save.

At fast glance it looks like div.wp-editor-container does not render correctly.

---> Creating field <---

$repeatable_row->add_group_field($row_group, array(
        'name' => __('Column 2', be_domain()),
        'id' => 'col2',
        'type' => 'wysiwyg',
        //'options' => $wysiwygOptions,
));

I've toggled the options, however here is what's being defined as wysiwygOptions

$wysiwygOptions = array(
        'wpautop' => true, // use wpautop?
        'media_buttons' => true, // show insert/upload button(s)
        //'textarea_name' => $editor_id, // set the textarea name to something different, square brackets [] can be used here
        'textarea_rows' => get_option('default_post_edit_rows', 10), // rows="..."
        'tabindex' => '',
        'editor_css' => '', // intended for extra styles for both visual and HTML editors buttons, needs to include the `<style>` tags, can use "scoped".
        'editor_class' => '', // add extra class(es) to the editor textarea
        'teeny' => false, // output the minimal editor config used in Press This
        'dfw' => false, // replace the default fullscreen with DFW (needs specific css)
        'tinymce' => true, // load TinyMCE, can be used to pass settings directly to TinyMCE using an array()
        'quicktags' => true // load Quicktags, can be used to pass settings directly to Quicktags using an array()
    );

Problem occurs on Chrome and Firefox

Thanks in advanced for the help.

This is a known issue:Metabox containing WYSIWYG editor cannot be moved or used in a repeatable way at this time (this is a TinyMCE issue).

See WP Trac ticket #19173 for more information.

I've just tried a WYSIWYG in a repeatable group, and my experience (in Chrome) is that the editor displays OK when you add a group, but the editor space doesn't accept the cursor. If you save the post, then things are OK. I'm guessing there's a bit of TinyMCE initialisation which needs to be done dynamically by the group repeat function?

@gyrus Sounds like that is the case. This comment by azaozz might be helpful but I have not attempted it.

Thanks @daveromsey, will have a look if I get a chance. For now I'm just putting a notice in to warn users to save after adding a new instance of the group.
