Hi,

I have successfully upgraded to Liferay 7.3.5-ga6 but there was a problem with the Javascript Loader (wich use require.js i suppose).

 

When it's checked (global exposure) in the System Settings -> Foundation, the CkEditor is kind of broken.

You can type your content and save but most of the features don't work like the "source code" mode.

You can see a big JS error on the console :

 

Steps to reproduce this :

• Connect in admin mode or any other user that has sufficient rights
• Go to System Settings -> Foundation -> Javascript Loader
• Check Globale Exposure
• Save
• Go to your Site -> Content -> Create a new WebContent
• Type some text in the content field and click on "Source" button

 

I think it's related to the recent upgrade of the CKEditor embeded in Liferay.

I Must use the loader for the JS code in our themes but i found a workaround :

• Uncheck the Global Exposure of the Javascript Loader (CKEditor is fine after that)
• Add RequireJs in every themes.

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

Regards.
