BasicPages, no WYSIWYG editor shows up.

I've installed BasicPages in Vanilla 2.1.5, and it's working, but the WYSIWYG editor is not showing up for the pages I create. What could be wrong? I have CLEditor enabled. Do I need a different editor to work with BasicPages?

    The text box on the Basic Pages editing page does not support the CLEditor plugin. Currently, it only supports the ButtonBar plugin, and a variety of text formatting options. In Vanilla, there are two main types of text boxes built-in to its Form library: TextBox (simple) and BodyBox, which is what Basic Pages uses.

    Using BodyBox lets plugins, such as ButtonBar and CLEditor, load up the resources required for them to show up; however, it doesn't load up all the resources correctly in the admin dashboard since the editors were meant for the front-end, so this could be why CLEditor doesn't show up.

    Additionally, if it did show up, new code could be added to make Basic Pages more user-friendly with CLEditor enabled, such as hiding the format selection and forcing HTML/WYSIWYG format when CLEditor is enabled.

    Add Pages to Vanilla with the Basic Pages app
