Make sure all editors actually work #28

Not all of them do unless you indulge in serious hackery of the included templates.

Not a good thing. :angry:

Can you elaborate on this issue? With pull #24 I've made sure that the editor would just work™ when you'd have the corresponding package installed (e.g. django-ckeditor, django-tinymce, etc..)

Hey @vdboor - I plan to do more complete testing this weekend. For what it's worth, a couple people said it worked great, and a couple people including myself had problems.

I suspect it's a setup issue and likely easily resolved.

Hey @pydanny, that's great to hear! :) I tried using Redactor today and also noticed it failed because jQuery was missing. Perhaps this could be one of the reasons people mentioned it didn't work.

TinyMCE and CKEditor work fine in my setup. Adding django-ckeditor or django-tinymce to the project is very important for the auto-setup; otherwise you're forced to add the files manually to your static folders.

If there is anything else that's causing the editors not to work, please let me know! I'm interested to hear about it :)
