I use JCE as my default editor. When I go into EShop component the editor features are not available and the text does not show on files that have text in them. If I change to TinyMCE it show the text and allows editing. All Joomla components are up to date. Using J4.4.13.

Any suggestions would be helpful to get editing back as I'm used to it. Thanks,

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

This is caused by the Doctype option in the Editor Global Configuration beting set to "HTML4". Setting it to "Mixed" is recommended and I have done this on your site.

The underlying issue is fixed in JCE Pro 2.9.94 RC - https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/downloads/editor/pro/development - and in the next official update.

Ryan, Thank you for getting to this and finding what went on. I have NO idea how this was "changed" to HTML4 - I very rarely go into config. But now that it's back, I'll keep track of that setting in my list of things to remember. Thanks again.
