One of my templates is suddenly not working
I updated to 2.8.17
Immediately I was unable to add content to a region defined by this template, which has hitherto worked for several thousand pages
<perch:content id="text" type="textarea" label="Text" editor="redactor" html="true" imagewidth="760" before="This is the main story area" />
Any ideas? Diagnostic attached

Which version were you updating from?
Other than the
beforeattribute not meaning anything, that tag looks ok. How is it failing?Updated from 2.8.6
If I select the region and add text, when I click Submit the text disappears and is not on the published page
Text entered into a region called Headline and defined as follows works OK
<perch:content id="text" type="text" label="Text" html="true" required="true" title="true" />
(The 'before' attribute was a much earlier attempt at something, which didn't work. I left it in by mistake.
I stress this template was working fine in 2.8.6.
if i revert to 2.8.6, can I simple delete the core folder from 2.8.17 and reinstall the core folder from 2.8.6?
The only change I made was to apply your MarkIt patch prior to updating to 2.8.17. I left that. patch in place before applying the 2.8.17 update
There's not been any change between those versions that should affect this. The tag looks ok.
Do you get any errors logged?
No errors logged. I enter the text, click Submit and it's gone.
One of our editors is experiencing the same so it's not related to my Mac
Is that all that's in the template?
Yes, that is all that is in the template for the region defined as Story, which is the one where the text doesn't appear
I've used the same template for a second region on the same page called AuthDate and this too has the disappearing text issue.
The Headline template however, as I said, continues to work correctly as it did before, and a Picture template on the same page also works correctly
If I switch the region to a template NOT using Redactor (TinyMCE for example) then everything works. This template works fine
<perch:content id="text" type="textarea" label="Text" editor="tinymce" html="true" imagewidth="760" imageheight="570" before="This is the main story area" />
By the way, thanks for being up so late and responding.
I'm using Redactor v8.2.1
If you keep the same template, but switch it to use tinymce rather than redactor, does that have any impact?
Yes, if I use the same template, but replace editor="redactor" with editor="tinymce", then everything works fine
Is redactor working in other places? This is looking increasingly like a redactor-related issue.
I have another region in the same Master Page that also has editor=" redactor" and that too does not work.
Is it safe for me to drop back to 2.8.6, which was working fine immediately prior to my adding the MarkItUp patch? Unfortunately I didn't test 2,8,6 before immediately upgrading to 2.8.17 so I don't know if the issue had arisen prior to the upgrade to 2.8.17. In other words, is it a conflict between the patch and Redactor or between 2.8.17 and Redactor?
We have Editors around the world familiar with the way Redactor works and I would be reluctant to switch to TinyMCE
Have you updated Redactor to the latest?
Do you get any errors in the browser console?
Updating to the latest Redactor appears to have solved the problem. Thanks for your patience.
I haven't fully tested this yet so I may have to come back to you if I get problems, but so far, looking good.
Thanks again
