Problem/Motivation

Since the notification the CKeditor is deprecated I changed over to CKeditor 5.
If I want to change my full HTML features, Ido not see any Icon, only text referring to the icons.....

{"undo":{"label":"Undo"},"redo":{"label":"Redo"},"heading":{"label":"Heading"},"style":{"label":"Style"},"specialCharacters":{"label":"Special characters"},"sourceEditing":{"label":"Source"},"bold":{"label":"Bold"},"italic":{"label":"Italic"},"underline":{"label":"Underline"},"code":{"label":"Code"},"codeBlock":{"label":"Code Block"},"strikethrough":{"label":"Strikethrough"},"subscript":{"label":"Subscript"},"superscript":{"label":"Superscript"},"blockQuote":{"label":"Block quote"},"link":{"label":"Link"},"bulletedList":{"label":"Bulleted list"},"numberedList":{"label":"Numbered list"},"horizontalLine":{"label":"Horizontal line"},"alignment":{"label":"Text alignment"},"removeFormat":{"label":"Remove Format"},"insertTable":{"label":"table"},"drupalInsertImage":{"label":"Image"},"indent":{"label":"Indent"},"outdent":{"label":"Outdent"},"textPartLanguage":{"label":"Language"},"drupalMedia":{"label":"Drupal media"}}

If I turn on the old (deprecated) CK editor, then the icons reappear.... see file

Steps to reproduce

No icons shown:
uninstall ck editor
install ck editor 5

Icons shown:

Install ck editor 5
change editor settings to ck editor
When I uninstall ck editor, icons are gone

    I'm 99% certain that the CKEditor 5 toolbar configuration UI is not being rendered due to a JavaScript error. Can you please check your browser's JS console and copy/paste the JS errors here? (Or post a screenshot of them.)

    Thanks! 😊

    Hm … those are JS errors for sure, and they're not even related to CKEditor 5!

    Can you browse to /admin/config/development/performance and click ? Maybe your JS aggregates are somehow wrong. This would force them to be rebuilt.

    P.S.: leuke sites! 😄

    Hi Wim,

    Clearing the caches did not really solve the problem but you've put me on the right track!

    On the bottom of the page there are settings to "bandwidth-optimailisation". "Javascript bestanden samenvoegen" was on!

    I switched it off and on again "like the IT Crowed" and I got ik all Back!

    thanks for the guidance!!!!

    I just had this issue and I have been able to work out exactly what this issue is.

    Basically in my case I had configured everything and went on to do some other tasks. When I came back I was getting the above error. I followed the advice above and managed to fix it, however the problem turned out that I had a missing CKEditor5 plugin.

    So I had originally ckeditor templates installed with the ckeditor5 patch applied. Then after I had switched tasks and back I did not have this patch applied and I got this error.

    So if you make sure all the plugins you are using exist on the system.

    I am reopening this issue because this should fail gracefully and not just a block of JSON.

    @gordon Thanks for following up!

    What you describe is a symptom of 🐛 CKEditor 4+5 plugin module dependency not added to text format configuration Needs work — it's not related to CKEditor 5 itself. Crediting you on that issue — there's nothing we can do in CKEditor 5 itself, unfortunately 😬
