Selecting an editor

This option is used to select the editor for HCL Connections™. If the Tiny Editors Selector service is installed, you can choose to assign the editor based on user or security group.

  1. Using a plain text editor, open customization_path/javascript/tiny/editors/connections/config.js.

    Note: Use a plain text editor to avoid inserting invalid formatting or symbols into config.js. Do not use a rich text editor such as Microsoft Word for editing configuration files.

  2. Locate the property editor such as editor: 'TinyMCE', and update the value to one of the following choices:

    Value for editor Effect
    'TinyMCE' All users will be shown the TinyMCE editor.
    'CKEditor' All users will be shown the default editor.
    'role-based' The editor shown to users is set by Configuring the Tiny Editors Selector roles. 
    `editor: 'role-based',`

  3. When you have finished making configuration changes, follow the post-customization steps to ensure the server cache is updated.

    Note: If the configuration changes do not take affect, restart the Common enterprise application to force a cache update.
