I set up django-tinymce to work with admin just like the docs described

in settings 

INSTALLED_APPS = [ ..., 'tinymce',]

in models I added 

from tinymce.models import HTMLField
content = HTMLField()

and in urls

urlpatterns = [ ...., url(r'^tinymce/', include('tinymce.urls')),]

But I can not figure out how to add icons and plugins ! I did a lot of research and I could not find anything useful.

I need a Full Featured editor.

TINYMCE is great. But at times, it fails to send input back to the server.

One of the alternatives to TINYMCE is django-summernote, which is easy to setup and use.

Check django-summernote here: https://github.com/summernote/django-summernote
