Having updated today to WordPress 5.0.3 (and running BuddyPress 4.1.0) textarea fields (e.g. in the registration form) no longer show the TinyMCE editor. This is because with Gutenberg enabled wp_editor() doesn’t work, which is what the textarea field type uses:

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-xprofile/classes/class-bp-xprofile-field-type-textarea.php:90-118

/**
* Filters the arguments passed to <code>wp_editor()</code> in richtext xprofile fields.
*
* @since 2.4.0
*
* @param array $args {
*     Array of optional arguments. See <code>wp_editor()</code>.
*     @type bool $teeny         Whether to use the teeny version of TinyMCE. Default true.	 *     @type bool $media_buttons Whether to show media buttons. Default false.
*     @type bool $quicktags     Whether to show the quicktags buttons. Default true.
*     @type int  $textarea_rows Number of rows to display in the editor. Defaults to 1 in the
*                               'admin' context, and 10 in the 'edit' context.
* }
* @param string $context The display context. 'edit' when the markup is intended for the
*                        profile edit screen, 'admin' when intended for the Profile Fields
*                        Dashboard panel.

$editor_args = apply_filters( 'bp_xprofile_field_type_textarea_editor_args', array(
	'teeny'         => true,
	'media_buttons' => false,
	'quicktags'     => true,
	'textarea_rows' => 10,
), 'edit' );

wp_editor(
	bp_get_the_profile_field_edit_value(),
	bp_get_the_profile_field_input_name(),
	$editor_args
);

The console shows the error “Uncaught ReferenceError: tinymce is not defined” which is apparently located in the tinyMCEPreInit script definition at the foot of the page.

Any ideas?

Thanks
