I just installed the TinyMCE editor on my test site, and everything works except for the image overlay. I compared the styles for the one on my test site and the one on this support forum and it seems like they are identical, yet for some reason mine is squished and the text is light gray on white. I'm attaching a screenshot of what it looks like (just click the image button in the editor on this forum to see what it should look like).
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get it looking normal again?

This would most often be a case that your WordPress theme - or sometimes another plugin - are also adding CSS rules that are conflicting - and winning out.
If you know how to use the web console of your broswer (https://simple-press.com/docum.....r-console/) I would start by looking at the styles that do not come from Simple:Press or TinyMCE but look for styles.css for your theme.
We can look of course but would need an access level to enable using the editor....

Here is the URL of the test site forum:
http://tfltrucktest.ddns.net/forum/
You can create a user and you'll have access to post. Don't let the URL scare you; it's dynamic DNS pointing at an old laptop in my home office.
I looked at the CSS using developer tools on Chrome, and it looks like it's pulling the color from the theme file, which doesn't make sense to me as it should pull it from the parent element. It also looks like the built-in editor CSS is overruling the Simple Press editor CSS, but it's also doing it on this forum. The offending CSS is "color:inherit". When I uncheck it in the developer tools, the text becomes black again. This "color:inherit" CSS is also on this forum, but when I uncheck it, the texts stays the same.
As for the size, I can't see where the size is being put in. It's done in-line, which leads me to believe it's somewhere in the PHP code.
Thanks for your help on this.

Just a couple of quick things. The dialog in question is actually a WordPress dialog - not tinyMCE OR Simple:Press so it is understandable that it would inherit something from the WP CSS.
As a general rule we would rather not create accounts on user systems. We much prefer them to create the account and then pass the credentials over. If that is OK then please PM credentials to both myself, to 'Mr Papa' and to 'Ike'. Please include in the PM a link to your site, a link to this thread and brief reminder of the problem. And one of us will take a look for you.

Sorry, I tried to log in using the username and password I received in a PM but it says the username or password are invalid.

I just logged in with it. Are you using the production site, http://www.tfltruck.com/forum/? I'll PM the password again to make sure I didn't mistype it.

Maybe I was on the wrong URL!
It's very strange, the container itself seems to be OK using the correct classes but the elements within are being pulled from all over.. As Andy said this is almost certainly going to be down to something the WP theme or a plugin is doing. Do you have anything running that might affect the editor itself?

The only thing I can think of that might affect it are all the Theme Blvd plugins. The site runs a modified version of the Theme Blvd Alyeska theme and it's been a bit challenging to even get the forum to work properly.
Do you know anything about the other issue I'm having with the Blog Post Integration plugin, or should I start a new thread about that?

are you really using that popup? it does allow you to reference web based images... but wp doesnt use it anymore which is probably why your wp theme and the popup are conflicting...
your wp theme is defining the base font as color #f2f2f2 which is pretty much white... the popup then inherits the font color so you cannot see it (its there but white)...
wp then defines the font color as inherit in the editor css...
.mce-container, .mce-container *, .mce-widget, .mce-widget * {
color: inherit;
font-family: inherit;
}
so you get the conflict... since simple press just uses the wp editor, you get what wp and your theme get you...
you can cancel out the wp theme overriding by adding something like
.mce-container, .mce-container *, .mce-widget, .mce-widget * {
color: #000 !important;
}
to your sp theme css file.. or perhaps (have not tried) to forum - themes - custom css
not sure what you are asking about blo linking... but yes, please open its own topic...
