[Frans D]

I just checked and can confirm that with the use of JCE editor, I don't have a no show problem in the backend of Virtuemart.
Thanks a lot for the tip jjk.

Thanks JJK that worked for me also.

can't imagine using clonky standard editors - JCE is the 2nd thing I install after joomla...

[Frans D]

I had it installed, that's why I could test it that quick.
Had some problems in my previous template with frontend editing with JCE, that's why I had tiny as standard.

Yes JCE is the solution for this problem - THANK YOU!

marked as solved

Another problem has arise.

Using JCE solves the problem with the store data.
However with the use of JCE, I cannot save the extended product description when I create a new product, the box shows up empty after saving.

I've done some further testing,
- I can create new Joomla articles with JCE, without any problems
- With TinyMCE I can create new products without any problems.
- When there is already an extended product description present, I can edit the description without any problems with JCE.
 
So the problem only occurs, with new product descriptions.

Can any of the other persons in this topic which also had the previous problem, confirm if they also have this problem?

Do you mean this happens when you edit a 'generic child product'? JCE might have included for example a <div></div> into the 'empty' description field. For VM this means it is not empty and it displays the empty divs instead of the inherited text from the parent product. If this happens, toggle the editor to view the source code and remove the <div></div> and click on 'Save'.

Hi jjk,

No, it's just a straight up new product.
When I toggle it, nothing is in the text field.
If you want to check it out yourself, I can make you an admin account.

Another problem has arised

the box shows up empty after saving

The backend box with the description?

I tried creating a new product and both the short and long description were correctly saved and show in the backend.

BTW I downloaded the JCE stable version not the newer beta they have.

[Frans D]

I am using JCE version 2.4.6.

[barbara80]

The only way to solve any problem is to uninstall and then new install virtuemart latest version. 
This was the only way to solve my problems

[lindapowers]

I am using JCE version 2.4.6.

Same as me

[Frans D]

And you use also joomla 3.4.1 and vm 3.0.8, with the standard out of the box JCE settings?
