    How to display the TinyMCE StatusBar

    i would like to be able to display the Tiny MCE status bar

    amongst other things, i have tried adding the theme_advanced_statusbar_location : "bottom" to the 'ValidElements' in the tinymce.config as per the post http://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/1870-tinymce-status-bar-option, but it is still not appearing.

    Any ideas?

    Hi Fergus

    What version of Umbraco are you using? And have you tried recycling the app pool or touching the web.config file after you made the change?

    perfect! i am sure i tried that and was getting an error of 'duplicate key'. perhaps i was using a different key, who knows?

    the advice in the link above must be for an earlier version of TinyMCE

    Thank you

    If anyone is looking how to do this in Umbraco 7, it appears that TinyMCE has been upgraded to V4 so you add the following to tinyMCEconfig.config

            <config key="statusbar">true</config>

    How this saves someone else 2hrs of googling :)

    Amazing thank you!

    This solves a lot of requests that people ask about the RTE to be able to select containing tags to apply classes. For example, apply a class to an li inside a ul from the list of formats, etc.

    This should be turned on by default.

    There is a lot of user frustration when people apply formats incorrectly and then are unable to apply them.

    Thanks,

    Jamie
