    I changed the configuration on TinyMCE and the toolbar (buttons) at the top disappeared. I was trying to add the table button and use the custom theme. I have changed everything back to the original settings. It’s set back to the "Simple" theme. I tried setting to the other themes but it made no difference. I also upgraded to 3.0.8 hoping that would reset it. Nothing has worked.

    Can anyone tell me what sets the toolbar on or off? Is there a code config I need to look at? This is creating great problems for my client.

      I don’t know the answer, but have you looked on the plugin wiki page for TinyMCE?

        Here is the default configuration code:

        TinyMCE > Configuration (tab) > Plugin Configuration:

        &customparams=Custom Parameters;textarea; &tinyFormats=Block Formats;text;p,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,div,blockquote,code,pre,address &entity_encoding=Entity Encoding;list;named,numeric,raw;named &entities=Entities;text; &tinyPathOptions=Path Options;list;rootrelative,docrelative,fullpathurl;docrelative &tinyCleanup=Cleanup;list;enabled,disabled;enabled &tinyResizing=Advanced Resizing;list;true,false;false &advimage_styles=Advanced Image Styles;text; &advlink_styles=Advanced Link Styles;text; &disabledButtons=Disabled Buttons;text; &tinyLinkList=Link List;list;enabled,disabled;enabled &webtheme=Web Theme;list;simple,advanced,editor,custom;simple &webPlugins=Web Plugins;text;style,advimage,advlink,searchreplace,print,contextmenu,paste,fullscreen,nonbreaking,xhtmlxtras,visualchars,media &webButtons1=Web Buttons 1;text;undo,redo,selectall,separator,pastetext,pasteword,separator,search,replace,separator,nonbreaking,hr,charmap,separator,image,link,unlink,anchor,media,separator,cleanup,removeformat,separator,fullscreen,print,code,help &webButtons2=Web Buttons 2;text;bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,sub,sup,separator,bullist,numlist,outdent,indent,separator,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,justifyfull,separator,styleselect,formatselect,separator,styleprops &webButtons3=Web Buttons 3;text; &webButtons4=Web Buttons 4;text; &webAlign=Web Toolbar Alignment;list;ltr,rtl;ltr
        


        Plug that in and see if it resets everything for you.

          Thanks for that. However, my problem remains. No toolbar at the top - just an abbreviated one on the bottom.

          I have tried upgrading and when that didn’t work, deleting all versions of TinyMCE and reinstalling it. That didn’t help.

          Only installing a new copy of Modx in a new database in a separate domain seemed to work but the issue came back (missing toolbar) when I upgraded to TinyMCE 3.0.8 there. Uninstalling 3.08 didn’t help there either.

          Does anyone have an idea of what files or database settings TinyMCE touches? I could roll back changes if I could get at its process better.

          I’d also consider any commercial support people that you could recommend. I really, really need to get this fixed. sad

            Hello,

            Is tiny configured to use the Custom toolbar set? Also i’m guessing this is manager editor we are talking about?

              I tried the "custom" theme but it made no difference so I put it back to Simple. Yes, it’s the Manager editor.

                Hello,

                Change it back to custom and use this for the settings:

                Custom plugins:

                style,advimage,advlink,searchreplace,print,contextmenu,paste,fullscreen,nonbreaking,xhtmlxtras,visualchars,media

                Row 1:

                undo,redo,selectall,separator,pastetext,pasteword,separator,search,replace,separator,nonbreaking,hr,charmap,separator,image,link,unlink,anchor,media,separator,cleanup,removeformat,separator,fullscreen,print,code,help

                Row 2:

                bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,sub,sup,separator,bullist,numlist,outdent,indent,separator,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,justifyfull,separator,styleselect,formatselect,separator,styleprops

                Also I think Editor is the default not simple.

                    Did you make sure your user settings were cleared? They override the system configuration.

                      Where exactly are the user settings cleared? I can’t find anything about that.
