Also when I navigate to : admin/email/templates/system\_messages.reviewables\_reminder I get this message : ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/2/6/f/26f91dc4499b993562652f35f5d1534122de0fc3.png) ---

I think that happens when you use the new wysiwyg mode of the composer in that input field. I can reproduce it by using the toggle. ---

Thanks for reporting, we will have a look over the next few weeks. Workaround for now is not to select rich composer in this dialog. ---

I will make it so we can force a certain mode for certain DEditor components in the app. Also…there is another bug here. I think because `text_body_template` here has `one` and `other` and our UI doesn’t account for this, which is why we see `[object Object]` as the error: > This happens in the Markdown editor too, so we are extra broken here. We handle this for the Subject: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/2/a/8/2a83cbb20032418fc11f3184d6d56d43d853d9a4.png) > But not for the body template. This has been broken the same way for at least 6 years now [FIX: Don't refer to pending review items as flags · discourse/discourse@76669bb · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/76669bb5a6dfa8c3425c1988ae7f240f23fd28cf) … I guess noone ever tried to edit this template. I will do the forced editor mode here, but I will also do some fix that is the same as Subject for one+other on the template. ---
