Finally got a fix now that always works for me... I'm using Firefox 4. No other browser works unfortunately consistently.

Thank you clon74!

My editor icons, front & back end, were working one day and disappeared the next. After much frustration, your solution worked. I also used a different version (com_jce_15713_package.zip) when I reinstalled JCE (on J 1.5.23) so maybe that was the fix. Or maybe it was the combination of steps ... I don't know, but JCE is functional again!

:( Lucky effess. Is not working here.

I have got the same problem. I´m happy that things are working well in Backend. But there is no toolbar in Frontend. Just upgraded the core from 1.6.3 to 1.6.6...

During opening of JCE in Frontend i see a little flash, seems the toolbar wanted to show and is hidden in the same moment. Problems with the parameters of JCE?

I left them to default - are there now requirements which didn´t matter in former times? To set editor width for example?

As far as I can tell JCE isn't working for me either.
When I toggle editors it toggles between no editor (html) and MCE.
MCE has full functionality.
JCE is v2, installed and config functions available.
What should it look like?

Have tried all work arounds people mention. No change.

Any more ideas welcome.

SOLVED.

I have been racking my brains trying to figure this one out... What did I do????
I am using Joomla 1.7.3 and JCE 2.0.17.

A few days ago, I did something, and lost the editor buttons (on all editors) and the show/hide toggle as well.

I have just compared two of my sites and found that my front end user settings had a different time zone. When I reset my user time zone back to "default", the editor showed up again. Strange.

Now as I write this, I can't recreate the problem.

Good luck to the others who still struggle..

OK, this problem raised it's head for me yesterday :'( after I have installed a couple of optimisation plugins. Having eventually realised what had happened and remembering what I had changed I went in and disabled the plugins and hey presto all the icons and full edit functions returned. :D

The plugin that caused the problem was: JCH_Optimise

This plugin combines javascript and css files which I can only assume introduces a conflict between the various css files in use editor.css being the one that threw a spanner in the works for me.

I hope this helps others that may struggle to find a solution to this problem which appears to be being caused by a number of different things. 8)

The support guys at sourceforge are aware of the problem but as yet have no solved:

Hi Folks:

I have had this problem with two of my templates as well. WYSIWIG icons for TINYMCE not showing up.

I want to thank you as there did not seem to be an answer in other forums. For me, it was a browser problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled plugins, template, moved servers and such. None worked.

I use Firefox 3.6. Switched over to Safari after looking at the SourceForge dev notes. In Safari, toolbar shows up. So try a different browser.
Thanks for the help.

Follow-up on this issue. As soon as I fired up Safari then was going to log out of my Firefox window, the TINYMCE toolbar in FF showed up again. So, is it the browser or the os or....?

i had the same problem (just activated artisteer today) jce was not showing up. even though the editor was enabled under global configuration, i had to go to my profile and enable the editor under the basic settings. then it came back! i don't know if this is your problem or not but you might check it out.

Hello guys, the solution to this problem for me was to disable the "Editor-None" plugin

reenable it to check if it was this the problem and buttons vanished again.

Joomla 2.5 browsers firefox, chrome, IE

Just updated from JCE 1.5.75 to JCE 2.0.21 on Joomla 1.5.25 and experienced the issue with no icon toolbar being visible. Tried a few things posted here with no success.

Checked on the JCE website forum and found the solution that worked for me.

Try deleting and re-creating the Profiles :
1. In the JCE Control Panel click on Editor Profiles
2. Select all the profiles.
3. Click the Delete button.
4. Click [Create/Restore] in the error message displayed.


Your mileage may vary ;D

Just signed-up for this forum so I could say thanks to Desertrider! I spent several hours tonight trying to find the answer to this issue. I also just upgraded to JCE 2.0.21 on Joomla 1.5.25. After the upgrade, only the [toggle editor] button was visible when attempting to edit articles...no JCE buttons or article content visible. I did exactly as suggested above and the issue is now resolved. Thanks again!

The solution from Desertrider doesn't work for me. However I use Firefox 11.0
When I switched to Internet Explorer 9, it did work! The button showed up!
I also tried Google Chrome and there the buttons don't show up. Strange...

I'm also using FF 11.0 and the fix I applied before upgrading to FF 11 still works. All editor icons are visible. I have an older version of Chrome (11.0.696.65) and it works fine. I'll be upgrading Chrome and post back on the results.

Update: Just installed Chrome 17.0.963 and editor icons show up fine.

@abcplumb, the key for me was to do what desertrider said and that is to go into the JCE Editor control panel and delete and re-create the editor profiles. Here are the instructions again:

1. In the JCE Control Panel click on Editor Profiles
2. Select all the profiles.
3. Click the Delete button.
4. Click [Create/Restore] in the error message displayed.

I have Joomla 1.5.23 and I use CPanel, I could change the editor in global configuration but, the toolbars weren't displaying. What I had to do was......

I had to change HTACCESS to 777 temporarily

Then I had to disable:
-editor no editor
-editor Tiny MCE

Now both FCKeditor and JCE editor work and I am finally able to upload PDF's

Big thanks Desertrider! Deleting and restoring the profiles helped me when the editor vanished after a migration from J1.5 to J2.5.
