Upgrading to ActionText - editor not working/appearing properly

Question

I'm trying to implement ActionText on my app that's been upgraded to Rails 6.0.1.

I ran rails action_text:install and migrated, then added has_rich_text :content to my comment model. Then in the form I've switched f.text_area :content to f.rich_text_area :content.

However the editor that appears looks like this and can't attach files. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

I had a similar problem after upgrading from Rails 5.2 to Rails 6.0. Please add the following line in your application.scss:

@import 'trix/dist/trix.css'

@import 'actiontext'
