I would like to be able to change font colors in my blog articles but I cannot see how to do it in composer, in JCE editor I can just select the text and then pick a colour.

Actually that would be same, you can highlight these text then you can select which font color you would like to use from right panel bar, you can take a look of my sample video here : http://screencast.com/t/3gpMfIVXgT
Hope this will help much you here.

Are there some hidden menus or has this been removed from EasyBlog on purpose?

I have a little bit lost here, may i know what you trying achieve here? Please advise.

I am editing from the front end and cannot see the block section that you have shown me.

No Block section on the right and a WYSIWYG, this is where i expect the colour and font size to be.

Hi Alex,

You were right, it was TinyMCE, I did not know it had been stripped back like that by default.

I have now changed my editor for EasyBlog back to the default as instructed.

Secondly, The blocks Tab only appears when you have the composer editor selected. This is not intuitive.

Normally as I expected all of the controls above the WYSIWYG like all other editors. Perhaps this should be a FAQ article somewhere or people might look at this thread and figure out that the Block Tab controls blocks as-well as the Font and Colour. Block control is specific to the EasyBlog Composer and that is why it does not appear when using TinyMCE or other editors.

hey there,

Thanks for getting back to us that was work for you

Actually we already have all of our build-in composer block documentation regarding this, you can take a look of our documentation when you are free
