A few issues: I am using DNN 4.8.1 and I get the error message below when I install the module. Is it because yours is using 4.8.0?

One of the images in the zip indicates that RadEditor is not intended to edit html. Why would I use RadEditor then?

The regular RadEditor doesn't seems to work with Opera. I can't type when using it. Is this a known issue?

Warning Install aborted - The module being installed is not compatible with your host application version ( an upgrade is required )

Hello,

Looking at the DNN file of the editor module, the only compatible version is 4.8.0:
<compatibleversions>04.08.00</compatibleversions>

However, there should be no problems deploying the editor in 4.8.1. Simply remove the <compatibleversions> element from the .dnn file in the archive and you should be able to install the module.

I changed the version # in the dnn file and it installs fine.

What are the advantages of this version over the regular version when used in DNN?

What does it mean that this control is not to be used to edit html?

Click on an image. Looks down. The labels are too dark they are hardly visible.
Image properties do not show top and left. I would like to edit these and preview in real time. (Another third party control does it)

Hi,

DotNetNuke has a lot of global CSS declarations, which apply to the whole page. Unfortunately, this means that the RadEditor styles will be changed as well. This was not a big problem with the old RadEditor for ASP.NET control, since it used legacy HTML output (tables and spans instead of unordered lists and anchors). For now you can try to workaround the problem by using a different editor skin. To change the skin, open the web.config file in your DotNetNuke website folder and add Skin="Default2006" to the editor declaration:

<add name="RadEditorProvider" type="Telerik.DNN.Providers.RadEditorProvider" providerPath="~/DesktopModules/TelerikWebUI" 
 AutoCreatePaths="true" Skin="Default2006" /> 

As you already noticed, the TelerikWebUI module is used only to control the editor (enable/disable). The editor will show when you choose to edit a Text/HTML module or in other modules that use the DNN html editor control.
