Hi bryanpollack ,

 

I think the reason you are getting that error , is because the editor component works only in context of a PostPage or of the similar type. (The standard components are page context sensitive) . Is your custom component on PostPage ,  ReplyPage or of the similar type or is it in a custom page ? 

If its in a custom page , I would recommend you to clone the standard page and customize it. Another option could be to include a custom Rich Text editor , though this could be little tedious.

 

Hope that helps.

Thanks,

Sam

I'm trying to add the ability to reply directly from the ForumTopicPage. Is it possible to get it to work properly on this page?
