Aaaaarrggg
Yes it looks simple. Thanks Bob, I didn't know that (not sure it is explained somewhere).
But...
But when I go to the Metadata, I get a warning that it will go to WYSIWYG mode. I cancel. But, anyway it screwed all my ID!
I understand that opening Metadata is empting the Notes section. This is where I had written the codes of the ID.
Why it is like that?
@Fergus: is it possible to open "Edit Metadata for this Page" WITHOUT erasing what has been put into the Notes section of that page?
This is really annoying
Thanks
@Fergus: please have a look at this.
When wanting to change the metadata using "Edit Metadata for this Page" (in order to pass a page from "Your Work in Progress" to "Your Submissions awaiting review"), as soon as "Send" is pressed, one gets this pop-up:
WARNING: WYSIWYG mode may replace some characters with HTML entities, which may corrupt query strings in URLs. Do you still wish to use it?
And even if Cancel is selected, the result is that all text inside the Notes section of the page is DELETED!
Can you correct this please
Thank you
When wanting to change the metadata using "Edit Metadata for this Page" (in order to pass a page from "Your Work in Progress" to "Your Submissions awaiting review"), as soon as "Send" is pressed, one gets this pop-up:
I stopped the pop-up by deleting the line that runs switchFormat() unconditionally. It will now run only when someone changes the format.
And even if Cancel is selected, the result is that all text inside the Notes section of the page is DELETED!
I didn't see that happen in my tests.
To my understanding, going to "Edit Metadata for this page" automatically switched to WYSISYG, and then it affected html. So not only in the Notes section, everywhere on the page, so an ID description could not survive. I worked it out by saving my html in a buffer text before, then copying it back after changing the Metadata.
I'm going to check if that has changed now.
@Fergus: No, the pop-up has disapeared but the trouble is still there!
The problem comes from the "Visibility" switch which automatically directs to the WYSISYG mode.
What is in the first section of the page survives but the rest is strongly affected. An html block describing an ID diagram is either completely screwed or simply erased if it was in the Notes section (as I had laid my pages).
I think something should be done especially if this is path to follow when an author wants his/her page going from a Work-in-Progress to a Submission-to-be-reviewed. Or is there another way of doing it?
The problem comes from the "Visibility" switch which automatically directs to the WYSISYG mode.
The line for the WYSIWYG option was making it selected if the format was HTML. This was incorrect, and I changed to be selected if the format is WYSIWYG. I also put back the unconditional call to switchFormat(), because it was needed to call up CkEditor for HTML or WYSIWYG mode.
I understand. Thank you Fergus.

It's fairly simple: go to Edit Metadata (for each page), and change the Visibility from Private to Members-Only.
