I am using drupal 6.2, have 6.x-1.6 ckeditor module and I have a webform with a textarea. When I'm logged in anonymous, the ckeditor shows up, but not when I'm authenticated. But if I was authenticated and clicked "create content" the ckedtior showed up - so I couldn't figure out why the editor wasn't showing up on this simple textarea webform. + oops. wrong forum.

- Through many hours of testing/tinkering I realized I had two configurations for ckeditor defined. One belonged to the anonymous user and was pretty basic, the other was more advanced and had all my authenticated roles assigned to it. It was the more advanced config that was the problem. +
- +
- Turns out the advanced config had the option "Allow users to customize editor appearance" (found under basic settings) checked and the basic config did not. Once I unchecked the option, it showed up. +
- +
- I'm a newbie to drupal and don't know what this option really does, but for some reason it causes the ckeditor not to appear. If this is by design, then it should be documented well or explained next to the option so that basic/newbie users don't spend hours trying to figureout what is going on. +
- +
- Just my two cents... hope this helps someone else.
