WYSIWYG
- Overview
- The WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) feature provides a user friendly editing alternative to the Wiki syntax editor. When using the WYSIWYG editor, information copied and pasted into a wiki page will retain most of its original formatting.
- To access
- Click the Wysiwyg icon on the Control Panel or use http://example.org/tiki-admin.php?page=wysiwyg
- Note
- Tiki uses CKEditor for WYSIWYG.
