 * You need to edit this file
 * wp-includes\js\tinymce\themes\advanced\editor_template.js
 * Search for
 * `theme_advanced_blockformats:"p,address,pre,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6"`
 * Edit this code directly for your desired options. You’ll need to do some cache
   clearing before you see this come through in the editor, but it *will* work.

 * Some more information on this, the cached tinyMCE gz file is stored in
 * wp-content\uploads\js_cache
 * Delete this file.
 * The newly generated file will pick up the changes mentioned in my previous post.
