can you explain just what you mean by 'whole toolbar'. By default, SP has a more cut down version of tinyMCE than, say, the WP post editor version. This is because many of those options do not really apply the same to forum posts.

But of you want to add some back in then if you go to the forum admin > components > editor panel then there are options to do so. The popup help should tell you all you need to get that done.

I'd like it to appear just like here with the options of "bold", "italics" etc. and not just a box where you can write in. 

 

I'll attach 2 screenshots: one of how it looks like in my forum and one of how I'd like it to look like.

so if you have done what we asked, and you still get just a plain box (is only go like half way across?), then its probably a js conflict... see:  http://codex.simple-press.com/.....-conflict/

if you gave us a link to your site, we could check for obvious ones...

Forgot to attach the links... This is the problem and what it looks like. In order to send you a link, I'd have to set up usernames and passwords for you and give you the password for the site. I'd appreciate it if you could see if you can help me otherwise. Screen-Shot-2012-07-13-at-9.37.58-PM-1.pngImage EnlargerScreen-Shot-2012-07-13-at-9.39.20-PM.pngImage Enlarger

Afraid that we really do need to take a close look at the actual HTML and code being generated which we can only do with the site being opened.

So you really do need to open a temporary user account for us just to get this thread sorted. May I suggest that you use our PM system to safely send credentials to both myself and to 'Mr Papa'. 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.

well I have been over to your site and had a quick look and am somewhat mystified at the moment!

The reason you are not seeing the editor is quite simply that none of the editor components are being loaded. What is odd, however, is that there are no errors or warnings which suggests that the site is not even trying to load it and failing in some way! That would give me something to work with!

I think we need to start with verifying the actual timyMCE SP plugin files. Unfortunately, the account you set up for us does not have forum admin rights so I could not check more deeply.

So - if you navigate to the forum admin > components section - do you have am 'Editor (TinyMCE)' admin panel listed and if you do, and you load it, do you see the form with the various options filled in?
