    Hello Marco and Francesco,
    I developed a custom plugin for one website and it has a text area which I would like it to have a Rich Text Editor.

    I started with wp_editor, but then found out that it didn’t work with Widgets due to being dragable items.

    Then I found this post in your support mentioning that it is posible, however there wasn’t more info with specifics.
    https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/tinymce-in-my-widgets

    I have tried with the following code:

    public function form($instance)
    {
    ...
    <p><label for="<?php echo $this->get_field_id('description'); ?>"><?php _e('Content', 'pre_sized_widget'); ?>:</label>
    <?php
                do_action( 'black_studio_tinymce_before_editor' );
    			do_action( 'black_studio_tinymce_editor', $instance['description'], $this->get_field_id('description'), $this->get_field_name('description'), $instance['type'] );
    			do_action( 'black_studio_tinymce_after_editor' );
    			?>
    </p>
    ...
    }

    And the editor appears, and works well, like I can add the links, tables, etc. However when I save nothing is saved and the visual editor dissapears and breaks.

    Would you be able to let me know what have I done wrong. My guess is that I have to add something else but in your form function you don’t have anything else.

    Kind regards
    David

    Hi David,
    the post you linked was related to version 1.x of Black Studio TinyMCE Widget. The version 2.x of the plugin has been totally rewritten. I think your problem is related to the fact that the codes that handles widget saving is not executed on your editor instances.
    I think it should be sufficient to name your editor fields with an id that starts with the string “widget-black-studio-tinymce”, i.e. “widget-black-studio-tinymce-description”. Please take a look directly at the code in file in js/black-studio-tinymce-widget.js.
    Maybe in the future I could even provide some hooks to enable the plugin behavior on editor instances with custom ids.
