I need to add a button to bbPress instance of the teeny MCE.

I’ve used the following code to test how my mce plugin work:

// add new buttons
add_filter('mce_buttons', 'myplugin_register_buttons');

function myplugin_register_buttons($buttons) {
   array_push($buttons, 'separator', 'myplugin');
   return $buttons;
}
 
// Load the TinyMCE plugin : editor_plugin.js (wp2.5)
add_filter('mce_external_plugins', 'myplugin_register_tinymce_javascript');

function myplugin_register_tinymce_javascript($plugin_array) {
   $plugin_array['myplugin'] = plugins_url('/js/tinymce-plugin.js',__FILE__);
   return $plugin_array;
}

This works like it should on the admin side.

I can’t wrap my head around how to get the same principle to work for bbPress instance of teeny mce. Which filter/action do I need to use and where? I’ve tried using the teeny_mce_buttons filter without any luck.

WP 4.2.4, bbPress 2.5.8

I think there is a different filter for bbPress tinymce buttons. Will check it out later.

Yeah I think this is the filter.

apply_filters( 'bbp_get_teeny_mce_buttons', $buttons );

bbp_get_teeny_mce_buttons

Any javascript you would need for the buttons you may need to copy editor.js in your child theme in a folder called js so that your code is enqueued.

Thank you for your answer.

I did play around bbp_get_teeny_mce_buttons but didn’t get it to play nice.

I ended up using the full MCE and removed all additional editor rows and trimmed the first row.
