I'm not sure how the editor settings work or if I'm missing something but here's what I'd like to do.

I want all forum users to have access to the CKeditor Full toolbar so they can easily upload images and embed videos.
I selected CKeditor as default in DNN (Host>Html editor manager). I changed the toolbar settings from Basic to Full for admins and registered users.
I selected DNN html editor under YAF host settings.

Within DNN the Full toolbar shows up, but within YAF I still get the Basic one instead without the image and embed media buttons.. how can I make this work?

I changed the toolbar settings from Basic to Full for admins and registered users.

Did you saved that settings for the whole portal or only for a specific page or module?

For the whole portal.
Under Host> HTML Editor Manager, the checkbox 'This portal only' was checked. I verified and the settings got saved they just don't show in YAF.
