Unable to set readonly mode

See original GitHub issue

What is the current behavior?

Missing or undocumented API for setting readonly mode.

What is the expected behavior?

A way to toggle readonly mode

I’ve followed the example for the react integration https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/integrations/react/

But now I would like a button on the page to toggle the editor from readonly to edit mode. Is there a way to do this? I found this resource, but it doesn’t work https://www.tiny.cloud/docs-3x/reference/configuration/Configuration3x@readonly/
In codesandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/tinymcereact-fqwj8?file=/src/index.js

I’ve also tried using window.tinymce.activeEditor.mode.set('readonly'); to set readonly, but it has no effect.

Which versions of TinyMCE, and which browser / OS are affected by this issue? Did this work in previous versions of TinyMCE or tinymce-react?

I am using react": “16.13.1” and @tinymce/tinymce-react": "^3.6.0 in Chrome.

Hi kaplantm,

As already pointed out the correct method to set TinyMCE as readonly in the react integration is to use the disabled prop.

The documentation is here: https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/integrations/react/#disabled
