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

Starting in Tiki6, Tiki uses CKEditor for WYSIWYG. Earlier versions used FCKeditor.
