Documentation is wrong. There is no plugins/toolbar folder

The documentation here
http://docs.cksource.com/ckeditor_api/s ... l#.toolbar
detailing how to change the toolbars refers to plugins/toolbar/plugin.js except the plugins/toolbar folder does not exist.
So I can't follow the instructions to change the toolbar configuration.
Help!
Thanks

Re: Documentation is wrong. There is no plugins/toolbar fold

The documentation is right.

That entry is defined in such file (you can see it by clicking the link), although it's compressed in the release code.

But in order to change the configuration you don't have to change the source files, and you should use instead the config object at creation time. Just look at the samples.

This path refers to the source file and it's actually not important to you.

See http://docs.cksource.com/CKEditor_3.x/D ... de/Toolbar, section Toolbar Customization

Thanks for the replies, but I'm still 100% confused. (I have been programming computers since 1980)

What config object at creation time? What is a config 'object'?
Looking at the samples doesn't help.

Re: Documentation is wrong. There is no plugins/toolbar fold

I guess that you still haven't looked at the integration guide: http://docs.cksource.com/CKEditor_3.x/D ... igurations

Do you seriously mean that you don't know what's an object in javascript?
If that's the case I guess that following the documentation will be a little harder as it's meant for developers with some minimum knowledge about javascript.

No, I have never done any serious Javascript coding, so I don't know what is meant by an 'object' in that respect.
I want to customise the Basic toolbar, that's all.
I did it a few months ago somehow. Just can't remember how, and the documentation is obviously not designed for someone without JS knowledge.

Re: Documentation is wrong. There is no plugins/toolbar fold

From _samples\api_dialog.html

// Replace the <textarea id="editor1"> with an CKEditor instance.
var editor = CKEDITOR.replace( 'editor1',
{
    // Defines a simpler toolbar to be used in this sample.
    // Note that we have added out "MyButton" button here.
    toolbar : [ [ 'Source', '-', 'Bold', 'Italic', 'Underline', 'Strike','-','Link', '-', 'MyButton' ] ]
});

Thanks.
The code I previously used is

CKEDITOR.replace( 'body_edited', { toolbar : 'Basic', uiColor : '#cdd3e5' } );

And I edited the basic editor config. But can't see where that is, now !!! :lol:

Re: Documentation is wrong. There is no plugins/toolbar fold

This is your configuration object :

 { toolbar : 'Basic', uiColor : '#cdd3e5' }

Thanks for your help. I found out what I did. I edited ckeditor.js to change the options for the basic toolbar.
