Just in case anyone tries my css above – sorry, I was terribly rushed and have only just noticed I pasted some utter gibberish by mistake ??

This is what I intended:

.mce-toolbar {
display: block !important;
}

I looked into this a bit more and think there’s a quick css fix. This should display all menu bars by default, and still allow you to toggle them off:

div[id*=-#mce_] {
display: block !important;
}

I haven’t had time to fully test this and to make sure it doesn’t break anything else as I’m rushing out, so use at your own risk ??

I agree with lencw. My users are not going to know that there is a second row of buttons, and all the buttons are necessary to make best use of my webapp. My preferred functionality would be that if the toggle button is not present in the menu bar then all menu rows are shown by default.

Me too.

I found the cause of the problem, just in case anyone else has this issue. My hosting company uses Varnish to cache pages, so they switched it off for the /login url and now all’s OK.
