 * I’ve activated the extra Theme Classes plugin, created an editor.css file with
   the classes I’d like to be seen and all I get is the standard WP classes;
    aligncenter,
   alignleft etc. Not seeing the custom classes that are important. What could I
   be missing?

 * It took me a bit to get some working to test with. It often requires you to REALLY
   empty the browser cache since the editor parses the editor.css file separate 
   from you browser.
 * I do remember that compound classes like ( .red, .link-red {color: red} ) and
   specific CSS like ( a.red {color:red} ) should not be first at the top of your
   editor.css file. I’ve seen it work fine on some sites, but others seem to work
   better if you have a couple of simple class declarations at the top of editor.
   css like ( .text-red {color:red} ). Also beware that one bad CSS group can spoil
   the fun for the rest of the file after it.
 * Also note that there is an issue with the Theme Classes plugin after the update
   on older websites. [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-super-edit-after-update-superedit-not-working](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-super-edit-after-update-superedit-not-working)
