As per subject - I noticed that, surprisingly enough, there is no default option in the Rich Text Editor to color the text. Does anyone knows how to do it?
I searched online for the past hour or so, and found a lot of mutually contradicting material, probably dating back to older versions.
You should add your buttons under: /sitecore/system/Settings/Html Editor Profiles/Rich Text Default/Toolbar 1
For your situation you can copy these 2 items:
/sitecore/system/Settings/Html Editor Profiles/Rich Text Full/Toolbar 2/Forecolor
/sitecore/system/Settings/Html Editor Profiles/Rich Text Full/Toolbar 2/Backcolor
under:
/sitecore/system/Settings/Html Editor Profiles/Rich Text Default/Toolbar 1
P.S. It is in core database.
