CKEditor 4 for Joomla released
We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 4.0.1 for Joomla 1.7+ & 3.0+. The new version introduces enhancements in performance, code and stability, as well as CKFinder 2.3.1 and a leaner interface! It’s the first v4 integration for Joomla, which represents a big step forward for CKEditor on the popular CMS.
Here are the main new features in CKEditor 4:
New Default Skin
The most obvious change is the new default skin. A few months ago we launched a skin contest and of the many excellent entries Rafal Bromirski’s creation was chosen to represent CKEditor’s new default look. Moono’s slick and neutral design makes it easy to integrate seamlessly into a wide range of websites.
The new skin is designed to look better in different colors by adding a slight hue to the actual buttons, making the new UI even more customizable than before.
Other CKEditor Enhancements
New documentation page: We created a new documentation page just for CKEditor 4.
Enhanced DOM and CSS performance: CKEditor 4 has been reviewed and optimized to enhance its overall functionality.
Reformatted source code: We reorganized the source code to encourage community contributions, adopting a coding formatting strategy that matches the most important JavaScript applications out there.
Backwards compatibility: The CKEditor 4 JavaScript API has been kept compatible with CKEditor 3. We focused on making the upgrade experience as seamless as possible. Report issues regarding backwards compatibility.
Improved Copy/Pasting: We have rewritten the clipboard handling feature set, one of the most important functions of any HTML text editor. You should see increased quality in all browsers.
New CKFinder
CKEditor 4.0.1 for Joomla includes CKFinder 2.3.1, which came out recently. The new CKFinder includes security and bug fixes for all server-side connectors, localization updates in Catalan, Chinese and Japanese, and a new language: Serbian.
