Is there any way to limit what shows up int the "formats" pulldown in the WYSIWYG editor? I'd like to edit it down to just P, H1 and H2.

We want to limit the options for site consistency.

Thanks!

Hi KaboomJk,

Yes, you can find the tinymce config options in /lib/wysiwyg.php

And it looks like you can add this option to limit the formats:

Hope that helps!

Everyone thinks they can do design. even with type!

One downside to removing the WYSIWYG editor controls...
If you have sections you actually want people to have more control over...
you get my drift.
Its kind of all or nothing. Unless you ITools guys have another suggestion.

We have on our planned feature list to support multiple wysiwyg configurations. So right now you can change the wysiwyg by editing /lib/wysiwyg.php. In future we plan to support multiple configuration files so you could have a "simple wysiwyg" or "advanced wysiwyg" etc.

That's probably 1-2 versions out. Hope that helps.
