  * set the Global Variable **Application_Use_RTE** to 1 for the module, which is it's default value
  * create an [[en:adminmanual:businessmappings:fieldinfo|Extended Field Information Mapping]] declaring the fields you want to have RTE activated
  * enjoy!

THE PATCH BELOW IS NOT NECESSARY ANYMORE!

It has been made obsolete by the [[en:adminmanual:businessmappings:fieldinfo|Extended Field Information Mapping]] where you can establish which textarea fields in which modules you want to edit with RTE.

We leave the patch here as a historical reference.

====== How to activate RTE on a module ======

  * Activate RTE feature in [[en:adminmanual:configeditor|Config Editor]]
  * modify template to add support for the module you want. If the module has more than one field with this feature you have to also add a block of code to launch CKEditor on the field
  * modify the EditView.php script of the module by passing the USE_RTE variable
  * modify the detail view of the fields to process and show HTML symbols
