ckeditor integration - attribute data isn't displaying

Yii 1.1 Extensions
1

I’m using latest Yii 1.1.7 and ckeditor-integration. I setup ckeditor as per the directions on the extension page =>




		<?php 

		    $base = Yii::app()->request->baseUrl;

		    

		    $this->widget('ext.ckeditor.CKEditorWidget', array(

		        "model"=>$event,

		        "attribute"=>'description',

		        'config'=>array(

		            'width'=>'600px',

		            'filebrowserBrowseUrl' => $base.'/filemanager/index.html',

		            ),

		    ));

		 ?>

But when the editor loads, the attribute doesn’t come up.

I patched extensions/ckeditor/views/CKEditorView.php to make it work =>

 	}

 }

 

+

+// pull model data into area

+$defaultValue = $model->$attribute;

+

 $oCKeditor->editor(get_class($model).'['.$attribute.']',$defaultValue);

 ?>

Did I miss something?

Thanks in advance,
