I cannot get the font parameters to show in my installation of CKEditor. I usually use Full HTML for the input filter. After searching extensively for any ideas about this the only think I came across was a recommendation to install the WYSIWYG Filter module, use it to set up a custom filter that allows all of the font parameters and use that as the input filter in the content editing page. I also set the new filter as the default input filter.

Did all that, everything is there and performs as expected, but still no font controls in the embedded CKEditor editor. I checked the ckeditor.config.cs file and according to it's comments it is set correctly and it says that when using Full HTML as the input filter, the font controls should be enabled and visible. At this stage I'm out of ideas.

Anyone come across this before and have a solution? I'm hoping I've just overlooked some simple setting somewhere. Thanks in advance.

There are actually toolbar settings, they just really like hiding them. Under Site Configuration -> CKeditor, look in the "Editor Appearance" tab. Right below the mockup of the editor should be a select list labeled "Toolbar". Go for at least DrupalFiltered, but definitely explore all of them to see what you want.

Wahoooo!

Setting the toolbar to "Full" displayed all the options.

Thanks Alan, much appreciated :)

I'm using OpenPublish, so it wasn't exactly the same. However, knowing that this existed thanks to you told me enough of what I needed to know. In OP, I went to Configure, CKeditor profile, Editor Appearances. There's a "Tooolbar" drop down menu. I changed it from "DrupalBasic" to "DrupalFull" and voila. It works. I'm grateful.

Hey,

I'm lost here. Where is the Toolbar option?

Under editor appearance in your default profile. It is located below "User Interface color" and above "Start the toolbar expanded"

I have only wysiwyg under site configuration. Is that it? Because I don't have that Toolbar option, as you can see in http://people.sabanciuniv.edu/mtozses/wysiwyg.png

These instructions are for the CKEditor module (http://drupal.org/project/ckeditor), rather than WYSIWYG. Not sure where these settings are there.
