I'm looking for a way to limit the ammount of styles a user can apply.
Much like this post.

The offered solution will limit the options for all portals I guess.
Is there any way to do something like this on a per portal basis?
Are there any plans for something like this?
For corporate portals it would be really great if you could limit the styles (inline or central) a user can apply (corporate identity). So both limit the list of styles and the available buttons.

I have some suggestions for a "solution" (part it might already be implemented / possible, plaase post if so)
For the buttons a simple solution could be to give the both the containing tables (for a group) and the TD's the buttons are in, a specific ID.
Like: fck_bt_bold, fck_bt_italic etc
Then you could set

#fck_bt_bold{
    display:none;
}
And the bold button would not appear anymore.
I know this is not completely hack proof, but it seems quite easy to implement and it would a nice workaround.
(and can be apllied on a per portal basis)

For the styles (drop down) it would be nice if there would be a way to limit the options.
1. A way to select the stylesheets that the editor loads class from (default.css/skin.css/skinname.css/portal.css)
2. The possibilty to add an extra stylesheet to a skin, that contains the (only)classes the fck editor should load.
That way the skinner can set the available styles in the skin and will make it possible to show/hide options by changing the skin for a certain page.

Maybe there are much smarter solutions then the ones I suggest....

The option to customize the list of styles already exists from more than a year ago. It always was available at a portal, module and instance level (i.e. you can have a module with a custom list and another module with a different custom list)

Take a look at the custom editor options for FCKeditor provider

Great! Thanks. Missed that one, is there any documentation on this?
I mean there is no document on the FCK editor itself is there ...?
What do you think about the buttons ID proposal?
Or is there a way to "remove buttons" too?

I mean by buttons you are referring to the toolbar buttons. Yes, you already can create new, edit existing toolbar sets and the apply a custom toolbar to each instance, module or portal. Maybe you are not reviewing all options inside the custom editor options.
