Sorry some of you have hit issues 😢 However, if your project is not rendering correctly in CMS 2.0 can you upload it to Elements Cloud and send the link to [forumsupport@realmacsoftware.com](mailto:forumsupport@realmacsoftware.com). We’ll look into ALL reported issues and hopefully ship a fixed build later today/tomorrow. ---

That’s nice; but unfortunately it doesn’t work at all as shown in the first video. I created a page “Edit” and then pulled in online editor and published. But unfortunately I only see a white page, what am I doing wrong? Somehow comes to another container, subfolder … no matter how I do it, it doesn’t work. Or is it not for the public?

❤ This! Great job! Elements made a long way (I am playing with it since 0.9.5), but this Online CMS is kicking it. ---

Only issue is line breaks - for me - I have html line breaks that work - but come out strange in the online editor and really strange in online editor markdown… I see a little confusion could be made with which version is the current .md file? The one inside elements is now just a delivery system to the online version… But really great stuff 🙂 ---

> [@handshaper](#): > > I create a dimension table using the CMS. I accomplish this by setting up the data in the front matter with a simple set of custom fields. The issue here was that your markdown files didn’t contain any “body” content — content below the frontmatter. The CMS 2 parser was expecting there to be at least a blank line in the markdown file before making it available in the frontend. This issue has now been fixed and will be included in the next update 🙂 ---

I messed it up and want to do a fresh install. Do you mean the Online Editor? If so, you can reset the Online Editor install by deleting the `/rw/elements/com.elementsplatform.cms/editor/php/config.php` file. Deleting `config.php` removes the Online Editor setup/configuration, including the admin account and configured folders. It does not delete Markdown content or uploaded resources. ---

@ben How does one change the selected post folder in the editor? I had selected the root CMS folder thinking I would get to see all of the sub-folders, but that was not the case, so now I need to change it to point to my posts folder. But so far, I cannot see how to do this. ---
