Strange tinyMCE behaviour (ohh now there is a shock)
info in siggy

in my live site:
http://www.pretendercentre.com/missingpieces/index.php

              the tinyMCE has many less options than it does in my test site:
http://www.pretendercentre.com/missingtest/index.php

the live site version seems to be missing the tree for inserting images, the font size dropdown and other goodies

both are the same version of efiction 3.2.1 and both are when trying to submit a review.
It is the same across all skins, including csszen, so i am not thinking it is a skin thing

is there something in the settings i may or may not have done?
of course, the test site has to have the better one doesnt it? i think it does it to spite me..lol
thanks
jacci

ETA:
I get the full version of it showing up (with the little tree) on my live site it woudl seem for only editing News items. Stories, series, editing them or adding, reveiws and just about eveything else, i get the other version.


why is nothing ever easy?

Your live site probably has a custom tinyMCE configuration.  The script forces a specific setup for admin functions.

Thanks Tammy. Any idea where i can get a copy of that configuration file? Had a look thru the tinymce folders and couldnt find what i wanted.

in my live site my message settings when i go to 'configure tiny mce' are:

tinyMCE.init({ mode: "textareas", theme: "advanced", language: "en", browsers: "msie, gecko, opera", plugins: "advhr, advimage, advlink, contextmenu, preview, searchreplace, paste, fullscreen", theme_advanced_buttons1 : "bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, separator, sub, sup, charmap, separator, center, justifyleft, justifycenter, justifyright, styleselect, formatselect, separator, bullist, numlist", theme_advanced_buttons2: "cut, copy, paste, pastetext, pasteword, separator, undo, redo, separator, link, unlink, advimage, advhr, cleanup, help, preview, code, fullscreen", theme_advanced_buttons3: "", extended_valid_elements: "a[name|href|target|title|onclick]", theme_advanced_status_location: "bottom", theme_advanced_resizing: "true", theme_advanced_path: "false" }); 

so i figured, i woudl just go to the demo site and find what is missing and insert it. nice and easy. NO, of course not.
when i do the same thing on the demo site, the masseage settings are blank. I am guessing this is because i have not added any allowable tags to it. Demo site is still new and havent really messed too much with it yet.

Looking at that though,: advimage is in both the theme and buttons 2.

I just tried deleting the whole lot of that and guess what? It seems to work and hasnt affected anything in a negative way as far as i can tell. Will be watching this carefully and let you know if i have any more trouble.

thanks again
jacci

Just leave the tinyMCE settings empty and it will fall back to the default.  The default will give you a little added functionality over entering a configuration because the script can then supply the user's list of images to tinyMCE.
