Not tools in Atto editor

I have a problem with the Atto editor in Moodle 2.8.3, only the Collapse button is showing.

The configuration is as shown in the example below on the page:

collapse = collapse
style1 = title, bold, italic
list = unorderedlist, orderedlist
links = link
files = image, media, managefiles
style2 = underline, strike, subscript, superscript
align = align
indent = indent
insert = equation, charmap, table, clear
undo = undo
accessibility = accessibilitychecker, accessibilityhelper
other = html

 

I can remove the collapse button and get it back, but I cannot get any other buttons to show.

You could try copy/pasting the default setting back and see if that fixes it.

Maybe there is an invisible character in the config that is breaking things?

Hi!

No, I have really checked, I also copied the original settings again but same result. I also tried switching between different original Moodle Themes, same result.

I just noticed a small "dot" where the buttons should be, if that's any lead.

If your Atto is using the default configuration (that you copied to an empty field) and it still does not work something else (extra code in config.php, some other javascripts, 3rd party plugins etc) might break Atto's javascript after that collapse button. Usually debugging errors in browser (Inspect elements with mouse right click or press F12) gives some possible error sources.

If Atto does not work you could also try to switch to TinyMCE from Site administration > Plugins > Text editors > Manage text editors or from your user profile to test if TinyMCE works better or if it has the same problem.

Thank you Mauno, the TinyMCE works fine. I'll dig deeper with the code inspector.
