Overview

Kentico CMS comes with built-in WYSIWYG editor. It uses the FCKeditor, one of the best browser-based editors available on the market. Since the editor is fully integrated in the CMS, it cannot be replaced with any other editor.

As you can see, it provides similar functionality to Microsoft Word editor. Still, there are several buttons that may require additional explanation:

 

Paste as plain text - this command pastes the content of your clipboard while cleaning out all formatting.

Paste from Word - this command allows you to clean the content pasted from Microsoft Word. It cleans up the HTML code so that it doesn't contain extra code and so that it fits your  web site design. You can find more details in chapter Copy & Paste from Microsoft Word.

Insert/edit link - creates a link from selected text. See chapter Creating links for more details.

Insert/edit image - inserts an image into the current cursor position. See chapter Inserting images for more details.

Insert BizForm - inserts an on-line form into the text. You can find more details on BizForms in chapter BizForms module overview.

Insert inline control - inserts an inline control into the text. You can find more details on inline controls in chapter Inline controls overview.

Insert poll - inserts a poll into the text. You can find more details on polls in chapter Polls module overview.
