SOLVED Fresh install on local machine - CKEditor no advanced toolbar

[Jamesir]

Hi,
I'm a new user to GS so maybe my problem isn't a big deal. I did a fresh install of the newest version on a remote server yesterday via FileZilla and everything worked as expected on first sight. As I changed .gsconfig.php to get the advanced toolbar, logged out and in again nothing changed after opening a site on the backend.
So I did a fresh install on my local machine to check things out. Again, everything is working except the advanced toolbar when opening a (new) site. Did a chmod -R 777 * to be sure it is not a privileges thing on my MX Linux machine, but that didn't help. Any idea what I am missing?

Thanks in advance!

I did a fresh install of the newest version ...

Hi,
The newest 3.4 ? Use the latest stable 3.3.16 instead, see what happens then.
Give us more information so we can help in a better way.

Works for me:

Thanks Felix,
no, it's the latest stable 3.3.16. I attached two screenshots, one from GS one info.php. If more information is needed please tell me. Btw, I can see the full toolbar in this window I am writing right now.

if you have it working then we can mark this thread as solved.

======================================

About more information to help in a better way.
The GS cms has an inbuild diag information page:
3 ways show that page:
1) click on the support button
2) at the bottom click on support, then click on Website Health Check
3) or add health-check.php directly at the end in your url

Hi Felix,

the healthcheck is what I attached to my last post. All fields below are marked as green. Unfortunately I can see the full toolbar right now on this site in the forum but not when I am on my local GS site. There is only the basic toolbar visible.

Maybe white space somewhere in your gsconfig.php ?
One of GS plugins is interfering with the ck globals ?
====================================================

Anyway, you don't depend on the gsconfig.php to get an advanced toolbar.

you can always add more items to the toolbar in an individual way,
and create your own custom toolbar:

In the backend go to to admin => template => js => ckeditor => config.js

Open config.js in a code editor and go to line 31
there you can add your own toolbar items

See the attachments example how I added CodeSnippet to the toolbar

Thanks for your quick answer Felix,

-> Maybe white space somewhere in your gsconfig.php ?
Only deleted the # in front of the advance toolbar command as written in the wiki

-> One of GS plugins is interfering with the ck globals ?

Fresh install, no other plugin installed

-> apache not complete
advanced toolbar doesn't work on local machine nor on remote webspace

I checked the ckeditor.js file you suggested, the line config.toolbar_advanced = is already in there.
Copied the rest of the advanced line to the basic line in config.js, logged out and back in to GS in the browser but this doen't help either.

I have no clue what it is that refuses to work. Maybe some rights on ckeditor's files?

Thank you Felix for your patience,

at last I found the mistake and I have to admit, that it was my fault (as often by noobs). I did a mistake on renaming the temp.gsconfig.php to .gsconfig.php instead of gsconfig.php without the leading fullstop.

Now everything is working really well and I am really excited to get my first homepage done with Get Simple.

Thanks again,

Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for coming back on it and posting the solution.
Just let us know if there is anything we can assist with.
Did you find a suitable theme for your website ?
Gruß Felix

Hi Felix,
yes and no. I found one, but there are so many themes you have to look through, that I am convinced that there will be another, that is even more suiting my belongings... So either I find some kind of algorithm to preselect themes or I have to take a look from time to time.

Best regards!
