Description

Simple Editor aims to provide simple authoring experience inspired by Wordpress. It is essentially a wrapper to collection of some contrib modules as dependencies and provides helper features and user interface. This currently works with TinyMCE wysiwyg editor. Instead of trying to be flexible, it makes some assumptions for use cases.

- Enhanced look of toolbar icons.
- Overrides TinyMCE init configuration.
- Lets you exclude textareas on which you don't want wysiwyg editor.
- Clean up edit mode user interface by hiding sections as a popup (Colorbox).

* Simple Media
- Lets you upload multiple files by drag and drop (Plupload), import external images, and re-use uploaded images by other contents in the site (FileField Sources).
