Folks; is there any way or guide on how to enable a character counter in the tinymce editor? Is that even possible?
Thanks,
Kristian

You can add a counter for words or for characters to the editor TinyMCE.

In the settings of the plugin add "wordcounter" to the field the "Toolbar top" or "Toolbar bottom" and to the field "Plugins".

Ah. Cool, thanks very much. That's at least something. I was hoping for something real-time'ish (with a count displayed in the status bar or similar), but I'll see how far this will get me.

You can enable the statusbar to show the counter.

Set in the file plugin.php in the directory /bl-plugins/tinymce (line 129):
instead of
Clicking on the counter in the status bar switches between counting words and counting characters.
