CKEditor No Longer Displays RichTextBox After Upgrading to DNN 9.12.0 Started By Manfred Hain We recently upgrade all our websites to th dnn 9.12.0. After this, the HTML module no longer displays the richtext/WYSIWYG editor. Also, all modules that use the CKEditor no longer displays the richtext/wysiwyg editor.
