Missing IMCE upload button on TinyMCE on Drupal 6

Missing IMCE upload button on TinyMCE on Drupal 6

I was asked to fix a problem with an IMCE/TinyMCE/Drupal 6 for someone today. Basically, the upload button wasn’t appearing in the popup box when you click the image icon on the TinyMCE toolbar.¬¨‚Ć This has happened to me before, on Drupal 5.x, and was because I hadn’t given the relevent users permission to use IMCE, or configured IMCE to be used with TinyMCE.

In the new version of IMCE, the latter option is no longer available, and everything else was set up correctly. After much testing and searching, it turned out that the answer was to simply read the readme file that comes with the IMCE files. It points to this page here, with some PHP script to add to the current theme’s template.php file. And now it works!

Now, if anyone can explain why this is now necessary when it wasn’t previously, I’d love to know.

  2. Have you re-enabled all the related modules? Have you checked the users have still got permission to use the module?

    Did you upgrade just the editor, or just the module? There’s two parts to it, remember – the bit you get from the Drupal site (the module), and the bit you get from the fckeditor site (the editor itself). You may have uploaded the new module, but not re-uploaded the editor?
