Hi!
I’m trying to understand how I can customize the wysiwyg-field toolbar.
I’ve looked and tried what’s in the old documentation but I don’t know if it is the same.
Anyways I’ve tried a bunch of different ways of writing the code for the “options” field in the setting and none of it works…so it seems like I’m doing something wrong…
Could someone show a snippet in here I would be really grateful!
Cheers, niklas

In the field options, you can use the `tinymce` property to override tinymce specific default options:

is there a way to apply options globally on one place?

Apologies for the dumb question (could not find an answer anywhere yet): how do I enable TinyMCE editor?
Or, if this is it, how to I add more options to the ribon? ie: blockquote, superscript, subscript, etc?
Thank you!

Ok, so I finally found the information I was missing. A more thorough reading of **[the documentation](https://getcockpit.com/documentation/core/concepts/fields#wysiwyg)** would have avoided my dumb question 😂 😅
Turns out adding some configuration to the options tab of the Wysiwyg field will do the trick:
There are some examples here: [Full featured demo: Including Premium Plugins | TinyMCE Documentation](https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/tinymce/6/full-featured-premium-demo/)
Best!

Does this still work? I’ve tried applying the example configuration, but I don’t have any new controls in my toolbar.
The field docs no longer mention customizing TinyMCE for WYSIWYG fields.
