I installed the FCKeditor plugin. After which, I updated to FCKeditor 2.6.3 (this required that I update the fckconfig.js file to include the MTDefault toolbar set). I also added the asset upload button, the files for which are available in the FCKeditor plugin SVN repository (but not in the packaged plugin).
Although I think the standard silver and Office2003 skins looks suitable without any modifications, other FCKeditor skins are available. I wonder why no one has made a Movable Type FCKeditor skin? I would love to roll out the FCKeditor and not even have my clients notice the change.
I included only a selection of the possible rich-text editor elements:
- Bold
- Italic
- Underline [perhaps I should rethink this--never use underline on the web]
- Link
- Unlink
- Ordered List
- Unordered List
- Outdent
- Indent
- Blockquote
- Left Justify
- Center
- Right Justify
- Justified
- Image
- Asset
- Paste-from-Word
- Source
I also set FCKConfig.ToolbarCanCollapse = false, which frees up just enough horizontal space so that all the buttons fit on one line (using the silver skin).
