How can I change the 'default' editor toolbar?

Mark Daly asked on October 6, 2015 17:01

I modified /CMS/CMSAdminControls/CKEDitor/config.js to adjust some buttons for config.toolbar_Default (i.e., remove underline, add special characters) but when I save the file and refresh the page in Kentico 8 nothing changes. We've also stopped and restarted IIS but the toolbar doesn't change.

I checked to make sure the default toolbar is the one displaying on the page.

Am I editing the right file?
How can I get Kentico to recognize the change?

Thanks

You are editing the right file. What you need to do is add a web.config change <add key="CKEditor:DefaultToolbarSet" value="Full" /> you can change "FULL" to whatever your definitions are in the config file.

I didn't want to change to the full editor, I just wanted to add/remove some buttons. And I've just been informed that the other editors are now seeing the right buttons. I, however, am still seeing the old buttons so cache is getting me again.

Mark, You should be able to configure this based on role. Navigate the role in the Roles application, you'd like to adjust WYSIWYG buttons for, open UI Permissions tab -> Editor and uncheck buttons you don't want to show for that role.

Not sure I understand Roman. The checkboxes are checked for many buttons that don't show. When I modify the config.js file in the file system the buttons do - eventually - change. My browser was caching the previous view for some reason.
