SORTED. Thanks BBloke - searching the input field name worked a charm.

So... to manually set the RTE editor,

Within the mutate_content.dynamic.php in the "manager/actions" folder - look on line 1197 and amend the line:
```
'editor' => $which_editor,
```
To become:
```
'editor' => 'The_Name_of_your_hardcoded_RTE',
```
so, in my case manually setting it to 'TinyMCE4' meant I made it read:
```
'editor' => 'TinyMCE4',
```
Save and bang - default RTE is set hardcoded.

To get the value name of your RTE - again use firebug to inspect the Manager element of the <option> element where the RTE options are listed - you can then hard code as above.

Hello,

this does not work in Evo 1.2 it seems. I changed on line 148 of mutate_content_dynamic.php

if (isset ($_POST['which_editor'])) {
   // $modx->config['which_editor'] = $_POST['which_editor'];
$modx->config['which_editor'] = 'TinyMCE4';
}

but this does not help.

I also changed one line on 1223:

 $evtOut = $modx->invokeEvent('OnRichTextEditorInit', array(
                   // 'editor' => $editor,
'editor' => 'TinyMCE4',
                    'elements' => $elements,
                    'options' => $richtexteditorOptions[$editor]
                ));

but with no result.

As of now, the RTE has o be set every time a document is edited. It does not save the setting when saving the document.

Thanks for any hint to solve this!
