<p>I'm trying to change Redactor's settings by editing <code>craft/config/Standard.json</code> (and <code>Simple.json</code>) but it doesn't seem to have any effect at all. I logged out, emptied Craft's and browser cache and still don't see any changes. </p>

<p>Is this feature broken in the current Craft version or am I missing something? I edit the file by removing/adding buttons, like this:</p>

<pre><code>{
    "buttons": ["html","formatting","bold",],"plugins":["fullscreen","video"],
    "toolbarFixed": true
}
</code></pre>

<p>Thanks!</p>

Did you select that config file in your Richtext field's settings?

that was it! Is there a way to change the default docs instead of going to all blocks and setting this manually?

I don't think so, do you have that many Richtext fields?

You have to select that config file you edited in your Richtext field's settings. See the settings options for ["Rich Text fields"](http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/rich-text-fields#redactor-configs) in the Craft Docs.
