Making cck multi-field, ajax and ckeditor work nicely together

Parent Feed: 
Linnovate

The problem:
When clicking "add more values" to add another field to a cck multi-value field, and if you're using ckeditor, the existing multi-value fields will disappear.

So, if you have cck multi-field, and must use ckeditor, here are 3 useful things to do:

  1. Detach the ckeditor instances before attaching them again:

  2. Set rtl / ltr:

  3. In the wysiwyg module's profiles, set the css to be used to "define css" - then it will load again after ajax is run.
