Description:
WikiBhasha does not support FF add-on to type Tamil. If one want to use wb to write article in ta wiki he have to use programs like NIH writer or E-kalapai to write tamil . People prefer FF add-on. Many active Tamil wikipedians use FF add-on to type Tamil in wiki. It is hindering my use of wikibhasha. But feedback window supports FF add-on to type Tamil (ஏன் இவ்வசதி விக்கிபாசாவில் இல்லை (why this feature is not in wb) tamil using ff add-on)

we tried with ‘Pramukh Type Pad’ firefox add-on and it failed.
the reason is, that it is not recognizing the editable divs as editable area.
On text-areas and textbox it works good.

We have started investigating on the issue.

Meanwhile people can try the below language input tool:
