...ok, so maybe it didn’t begin there, but that post sums up pretty clearly the problem I was experiencing. Very frustrating.

I thought it was a corrupt TinyMCE file or missing dependent. Reinstalled: Nothing.
I thought it was a corrupt SVN issue. Upgraded to 096 RC2, then RC3: Nope.
I thought it was a damaged plugin or missing System Event. All checked out: Zilch. Zip.

Finally, I stumbled upon a post indicating that--as of 096 RC2/RC3--TinyMCE Themes were not updating in the Manager Configuration. So, I decided I’d try changing themes. Sure enough, the theme change does not register, nor did it help with my mysterious, missing editor.

However, the post also referenced the modx_system_settings table--and user premissions--and I eventually found modx_user_settings table containing setting_name: tinymce_editor_theme

To my surprise, I found the setting_value of: full

That’s odd. When looking into the list of available themes, the only values I saw were:
simple
advanced
editor
custom

No "full" on that list...Hmmm...
Keep in mind my error stemmed from a 095 development to production migration with 096 RCx upgrades. That said, it seems plausible that a third-party-based setting--likely now a legacy reference with the release of TinyMCE 2.1.0--could have snuck through (unknown to the updater) wreaking havoc on my client’s editing abilities.

I manually updated the database and changed the value from full to custom and my "mysterious problem" mysteriously went away! (Finally.)

In short, if you ever experience an issue like here: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,5403.msg87763.html#msg87763 remember this thread!]]> pixelchutes Apr 24, 2007, 01:05 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/45839/solved-the-mysterious-missing-tinymce-and-the-stow-away-settings#dis-post-265393
