Yesterday, I logged into the control panel to change some data in the Custom HTML/Text area using my iPad with Safari and a WiFi connection. However, I noticed the edit bar at the top of the data area was not there. It only shows the HTML code... no plain text, so I couldn't make a simple change to the text or change the font or size. Note, this works on my PC with Firefox or Explorer, or Chrome, however when I log into the control panel with my iPad, it only shows HTML code. I tried loading Chrome and Dolphin on my iPad and I have the same problem. Any suggestions? Title Comments I'm using BT v2.0 self hosted and I created a iOS app that uses the Custom HTML/Text Plugin.

Now, I can finally use my iPad to show customers how this works. Thank you so much... cheers!
