 * Hello,
 * I recently download the “Black Studio TinyMCE Widget” text editor plugin.
 * But for some reason, although I have activated the plugin on my dashboard, I 
   still only see the default text editor which lacks for someone who isn’t HTML
   friendly.
 * I am very new to this, so thanks in advance for all help.

 * TinyMCE is very persistent in cache.
    Try connecting from another browser to 
   test.

 * Did you looked into the settings of the plugin?
    Most plugins are default not
   activated untill you put the right settings in.

 * Plugin settings are mostly in the admin sidebar settings but they can appear 
   on different tabs also.

 * It doesn’t even appear on the admin plugin area of “WP Super Cache”. This is 
   really frustrating haha.

   even seem to find how to increase fon’t size lol.

 * Haha i found your solution mate. I installed the plugin to test it myself.
    You
   installed Black Studio TinyMCE Widget ( Name says widget). So what you installed
   is seen in your widgets and not in your actual visual editor.
 * The real plugin you want is ultimate tinymce
    [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ultimate-tinymce/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ultimate-tinymce/)
 * Black Studio TinyMCE Widget works together with ultime tinymce.
    Maybe that’s
   why you got confused it’s the same but for widgets.
