If you want it to default to Potlatch 2 then just change the default 
editor in config/application.yml and  if you want to hide Potlatch 1 
then remove it from the list of available editors in lib/editors.rb.

That will be far more robust than fiddling with the code.

I have no idea why you are pasting _potlatch2.html.erb into the index 
page anyway - that drives the view tab not the edit tab. I suggest you 
undo that as it sounds like you have broken things.

Once again I suggest you undo whatever you have "updated" as there 
should be no need to change any of the code.

Tokens will be issued automatically. All you need to do is register an 
OAuth application for PL2 and then put the key value into the config 
file and everything else will happen automatically.

Go to your user page, then "oauth settings" and "Register your 
application" and fill in the details (the callback and support urls can 
be left blank) and you will get given the key value.
