 * I had made a plugin for TinyMCE and insert the plugin manualy in the TinyMCE 
   folder, but I want to do it with a wp-plugin. There for I have write the following
   code:
 *     ```
       /********************************************************/
       /*	Function:	dam_add_button							*/
       /********************************************************/
       function dam_add_button() {
          // Don't bother doing this stuff if the current user lacks permissions
          if ( ! current_user_can('edit_posts') && ! current_user_can('edit_pages') )
            return;
   
          // Add only in Rich Editor mode
          if ( get_user_option('rich_editing') == 'true') {
            add_filter('mce_external_plugins', 'dam_insert_plugin');
            add_filter('mce_buttons', 'dam_register_button');
          }
       }
   
       /********************************************************/
       /*	Function:	dam_register_button							*/
       /********************************************************/
       function dam_register_button($buttons) {
          array_push($buttons, 'separator', 'dam');
          return $buttons;
       }
   
       /********************************************************/
       /*	Function:	dam_insert_plugin							*/
       /********************************************************/
       function dam_insert_plugin($plugin_array) {
          $plugin_array['dam'] = WP_PLUGIN_URL.'dam/editor_plugin.js';
          return $plugin_array;
       }
   
       /********************************************************/
       /*	decalaration of the WordPress action/filter hooks:	*/
       /********************************************************/
       add_action('init', 'dam_add_button');
       ```
   
 * But when I run this code as a plugin I don’t see a button at all. Can someone
   help me with this problem?
 * (I have the TinyMCE plugin placed in the plugin folder: “wp-content/plugins/dambord/
   dam/editor_plugin.js”)

 * Martin:
 * I compared your above code against my plugins code for including it’s custom 
   tinyMCE control and it looks correct. When I first created my plugin I had the
   same issue and to correct it I needed to sync my tinyMCE’s command name to match
   the value used in the insert/register functions.
 * For example:
 *     ```
       ed.addCommand('dam', function(ui, val) {
       ...
       });
       tinymce.PluginManager.add('dam', tinymce.plugins.dam);
       ```

 * Thanks a lot. I have change the different commands to the same name. Now the 
   icon of the plugin is showing in the icon bar.
 * Now I only need to migrate my TinyCME plugin to 3.0, but that isn’t a wordpress
   problem ;).
 * Tanks again.
