How to Add Rich Text Editor to Dashboard User Control
I have been able to add the content picker and the media picker to my usercontrols for the dashboard before, but now i am trying to add in a rich text editor and it requires an extra field for initialization:
richtexteditor = new umbraco.editorControls.tinyMCE3.TinyMCE(null, "");
The configuration string goes in second and i need to figure out how to add that in in order to get the rich text to work i think. Has anyone else been able to do this before? all i really need is basically the same configuration that this forum has but without the format, strike through, and html buttons
i dont know how to insert an image... but what i am seeing on my dashboard is an empty area where the text box of the rich text editor is supposed to be.
i think the fix for this is to look up the configuration options in tinyMCE. i did it once but then didnt use the control but i inserted like "advanced" or "simple" or something into the configuration and it worked. couldn't control the buttons any more than that though

Hi. Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I am trying to achieve the same thing, with little success...
nope, sorry :(
i wound up working around it with just a textarea
