 * Hi,
    I get the following error in the Advanced section, my theme is woo-canvas.
   This error only has shown-up after latest tinymce upgrade. I miss the old versions
   of with inline-css-editing, is this a fix?
 * Create CSS classes menu
 * Load the CSS classes used in editor-style.css and replace the Formats menu.
    
   ERROR: Your theme does not support editor-style.css. To use this option, add 
   editor-style.css to your theme or a child theme. Enabling this option will also
   load that stylesheet in the editor.
 * Thanks, Mike

 * Yeah, “Error” was a poor choice of words there, will change it. This means that
   your theme is either (very) old or somewhat incomplete and doesn’t add the main
   post styles to the editor.
 * You can do that yourself and “tell” TinyMCE Advanced to load the `editor-style.
   css` file after you add it.

 * Thanks!
 * I am using Woo Themes Canvas 5.9.22, with child theme. I have added the editor-
   style.css and TinyMCE Advanced sees’ it and loads in editor…thing is it only 
   loads one item…a video thing and that’s it.
 *  No formats, styles, commands, codes. How do I populate the menu with all those
   wonderful css styles that we all love?

 * I’m glad you were able to get that working 🙂

 * This is tougher. Only “simple” CSS selectors can be imported and used as menu
   in TinyMCE. It works best with CSS classes, for example:
 *     ```
       .red-text {
         color: red;
       }
       .red-background {
         background: red;
       }
       ```
   
 * There is a much more powerful way to set a custom menu that can do more than 
   just add CSS classes to the HTML, but it’s more involved and needs quite a bit
   more efforts to set up properly 🙂
 * See [https://www.tinymce.com/docs/configure/content-formatting/#style_formats](https://www.tinymce.com/docs/configure/content-formatting/#style_formats).
