Hi Brian, As far as I can see, nothing has changed on the plain editor w.r.t. the _editedtext parameter name. You can still use it to overwrite the content of the edit area.
However, I would have expected to see another edit URL, i.e. without /wiki : https://my.web.server/Edit.jsp?page=<pageIdentification>&_editedtext=<my plugin invocation> Hope this helps a bit, dirk On Wed, Mar 20, 2019 at 8:03 AM Brian Burch <br...@pingtoo.com> wrote: > Janne Jalkanen helped me resolve this requirement of my PhotoCollection > plugin in February 2009!
