How can fonts/colors be set in the editor?

I'm using advanced editor but don't see how it's possible to change either fonts or colors

    or what? the editor input in real time or the formatted? Do you not see buttons ? Can you not use html ? what exactly is your problem ?

    Basically you have two options: one (which I would disencourage!) is to edit /plugins/editor/class.editor.plugin.php. There is a list of which features are enabled and which are disabled:

        public function getAllowedEditorActions() {
            static $allowedEditorActions = array(
                'bold' => true,
                'italic' => true,
                'strike' => true,
                'orderedlist' => true,
                'unorderedlist' => true,
                'indent' => false,
                'outdent' => false,
    
                'sep-format' => true, // separator
                'color' => false,
                'highlightcolor' => false, // Dependent on color. TODO add multidim support.
                'format' => true,
                'fontfamily' => false,
    
    
                'sep-media' => true, // separator
                'emoji' => true,
                'links' => true,
                'images' => true,
                'uploads' => false,
    
                'sep-align' => true, // separator
                'alignleft' => true,
                'aligncenter' => true,
                'alignright' => true,
    
                'sep-switches' => true, // separator
                'togglehtml' => true,
                'fullpage' => true,
                'lights' => true
            );
    

    The second way (and the preferred way) is to change the settings with a plugin. You do not need to write such a plugin by yourself, it already exists: https://open.vanillaforums.com/addon/aeconfig-plugin

  • Thanks RJ, I'll give that a try...

    They are disabled because they are an accessibility nightmare. I strongly recommend against giving those controls to users. So strongly, in fact, that we removed them as features. :)
