Missing tool icons shorter toolbars – what to do

It has happened a few times in the past that bloggers complained that suddenly those icons in the Blogger post editor for specifying the color, font type and size have disappeared. Now if previously the toolbar in the post editor had looked like this (see screen shot):

but has changed to this (see screen shot):

then the problem is easily solved. What has happened was that previously the post editor was in the compose WYSIWYG mode which has a longer toolbar with more tool icons but somehow the blogger probably got changed into the edit HTML mode which has a shorter toolbar with less icons. All you need to do is to change back to the Compose mode if those extra tool icons are important to you.

However, my advice to you if compose WYSIWYG mode is what you prefer is to switch over to the edit HTML mode as you can do more and have better control over your blog.
