Thanks for the heads up, Im looking into this now

[mrjcgoodwin]

Can confirm I'm experiencing this issue too - any update?

Blocks I've created using non-wysywig seem to be unaffected by this.

[mrjcgoodwin]

Ok - I think I've sussed the root of the issue, although some who knows what they're doing will have to change the core plugin code and submit to the repo: (note: I'm currently working on the plugin as per the file uploaded on the C5 thread as the Github one wouldn't install - see discussion for details).

According to the 5.7 docs here https://www.concrete5.org/documentation/developers/5.7/interface-customization/rich-text-editor/embedding-rich-text-editor/

"outputStandardEditor takes two parameters. The first is the name of the form element, and the second optional parameter is any content you want to appear in the text area."

If you go into your created block's edit.php file

Currently DC is outputting fields that look like this: <?php print Core::make('editor')->outputStandardEditor('field_2_wysiwyg_content'); ?>

and change these lines to: <?php print Core::make('editor')->outputStandardEditor('field_2_wysiwyg_content', $field_2_wysiwyg_content); ?>

The wysiwyg fields will work :-)
