====== WYSIWYG Editor ======
GetSimple uses [[http://ckeditor.com/|CKEditor]] as its rich-text editor of choice. It is not necessary to have this enabled to use **GetSimple**. If you have it off, you will need to type the HTML into your content area yourself.

Please note that the expression //WYSIWYG Editor// is commonly used, but it is not 100% true. 
The editor, as any Rich-Text-Editor for web-applications does not reflect the actual CSS which comes with the activated theme. To have the text displayed / formatted like it would be styled by CSS, some configuration has to be done (and is not documented yet here in the WIKI)

**CKEditor** is the successor of FCKEditor, but with new syntax.

All information on CKEditor is online at [[http://docs.cksource.com/]] 

In this chapter, you find the following information about the editor:

In your GetSimple-installation, **CKEditor** is located in the directory //root of your GetSimple installation/admin/template/js/ckeditor///
There you will find the file ''readme-getsimple.txt'' which contains information about the integration into **GetSimple**.
==== ReadMe ====
//CKEditor 3.5.2 for GetSimple CMS (v1.1, 2011-03-06)

This is a special stripped down version of CKEditor, configured to work with **GetSimple.**

Differences from original version:

* added improved getsimple skin, based on default getsimple skin
* removed samples, sources, skins, all languages except from English, connectors and other files not crucial for CKEditor functioning
* hide element path, resizer and toolbar collapser using config.js instead of CSS display:none

Issues:
* toolbar collapser doesn't work
* some toolbar icons in icons.png has very low opacity (it is in image, not CSS problem)
* dialog close button should be replaced with image more suitable to GetSimple style 

Notes:
Removing all languages except English from CKEditor saves a lot of space. I'd suggest to notify translators to add CKEditor translations to GetSimple translation packs.//

===== Enabling/Disabling CKEditor in GetSimple =====
Within **Settings -> Website Settings** you can check (enable) or uncheck (disable).
