The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

This should be the default Joomla editor - it adds so much simplicity and functionality to your Joomla site. Well worth paying for a subscription to get the extra plugins, too - File Manager, Image Manager and Media Manager.

This editor goes far beyond "brilliant"! It works, it has groups, it has custom buttons, it has designable button rows for each group, it is very powerfull, creating nice and clean code. JCE has everything you would ever want, I guess!
This absolutely rocks.

I recommend using the Advanced image manager plug-in, too, which adds a neat Lightbox and advanced image handling (e.g. text floating around images etc.) options.

The only problem I had was that the spell checker would not work. I finally found the solution. JCE was defaulting to google's engine, which only works with SSL. The engine that works best with most php installations is pspellshell, which was not in the config file and not selectable from the plugin screen. If you are clicking the spell checker and getting an error after awhile...read here in their support forum for the solution:

Without a doubt one of the BEST extensions I have ever had the pleasure of using!!

What can I say, the image and link managers alone are superb! This plugin and component are well worth the download.

Keep up the awesome work!!

Stuff having to go the long way round to make dodgy changes!! I wish I'd downloaded this awesome tool sooner!!! Makes editing so much easier right throughout my Joomla 1.0.15 and my Virtuemart 1.1.0. No problems with anything from the word 'go'. Worked immediately. I'm so looking forward to seeing where this little baby goes...photoshop style editing capabilities in your Joomla administration area???!!! THANKS!!!

I've just been slowly changing my sites from Joomla-1.0.x to Joomla-1.5.3. The standard editor is OK, but then I needed more. I use JCE on all of my Joomla-1.0.x sites but wanted to try something different. Big mistake. Don't waste your time with any other editors. JCE is the best. Easy to install, and it works well. What else can I say?

This is a must! It is easy to install and sooo easy to use!
It has many features and I particularly like the fact that you can pick an internal link for drop-down boxes!
Well done and thank you!

This is just the thing I've been looking for. Been researching and testing CMS software for almost a year now and JOOMLA! with JCE is a must have for anyone in the industry. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

this editor is a must have.
- you can customize the editor for different user groups.
- you can limit the directory where the user is alowed to
upload files or you can configure for every user an own
directory with variables ($username)
... and lot of other stuff.

I've used JCE at least two, maybe three years and it was what made me decide on Joomla. It is essential. Ryan is quick on the forums. Just quietly, I probably wouldn't use Joomla without JCE, (Although Joomla is also brilliant) Now it is native for 1.5 and really good improvements like multiple upload and resize, group access and way more. Can insert Flash or mp3 files easy as. A must have under every tree at christmas.

Awesome addition!

This extension provides all the goodies and control over editing content!

I ran into a tiny configuration issue, but support was within 2 hours - awesome!

One of the standard extensions for all of my new Joomla websites and installs!

Looking forward to the subscription plugins too!

Thanks a billion!!!

Way better than the TinyMC Editor - cleaner, slicker, and down right better than the default!

Made my like easier as a newbie to Joomla!

The module did exactly what it said and more. Quick and easy to install with great documentation to learn about the advanced features.

Not only does the easy interface allow me as a webmaster to accomplish tasks quicker it allows me to hand real ownership and control of the site over to folks not so technically inclined. Even tasks such as adding in rollover images and easy uploading of files. Allowing my nonprofit clients to feel comfortable using the website tools ensure that they are more likely to have active and successful websites.

Thanks for developing this fantastic tool and sharing it with the Joomla community.

This certainly makes my life, as a webmaster, much easier !

5 out of 5.

Being a Windows guy and using MS Word for quite sometime for content editing, this is an Excellent (I wish there is a better word for this) tool for content editing in Joomla.

My client asked me to give a facility to create links to existing contents, I am giving her JCE.

I have decided to have JCE as my default WYSIWYG editor in all my Joomla installations.

Ryan, you made my day!!! Thanks a ton.

This editor is the best open source Joomla editor there is. It has the ability to link to other content within the site without having to know the full URL.

It has a few quirks, one of which is that when you cut/paste from the JCE WSIWYG editor into an external editor like MS Frontpage using the design tab, the HTML generated has '/administrator/administrator' inserted into every URL link. When you edit that in your external editor and paste it back in, then beware...your links won't work.

I don't know why that is but I've learnt to live with it. I seldom edit externally anyway so it isn't much of a problem.

Another quirk is that the editor is susceptible to the wrong URL, if you put sitename.co.uk in the browser and your Joomla site is configured as www.sitename.co.uk, the editor content pane may not show up at all. This may be a Joomla problem though and not a JCE specific issue.

I have also had problems trying to get JCE as the default editor, sometimes having to de-install all the other editors and re-install JCE a couple of times before it would work.

Once installed and working it is my editor of choice and all my sites now have JCE installed by default.

I have tested and used other editors looking for JCE. Now that I've found it, I have been using it (and my clients) for over 2 years with excellent results.

After you install JCE, at the bottom of the "success" page we see that the work on JCE is dedicated to his (Ryan's) father.

Ryan, he is proud of you.

JCE is fantastic!

Quality - excellent
Usefulness - excellent
Features - stellar (i.e. beyond excellent)
Configurable - excellent
Ease of installation - excellent

I can't say enough good things about this component and all the useful plugins (especially the latest image manager)

Wish - I wish all the blog components, forum components, and any add-ons that include html entries (e.g. editor text area) would simply allow JCE to create HTML for their application - all users and admins would benefit!

Anyone that uses this component should send a donation immediately. He has single handedly saved hundreds (if not thousands) of people hours-and-hours of time with JCE.

Wow, as I'm new to Joomla 1.5, I was already completely satisfied with the included TinyMC Editor...

So at first I was reluctant to try this one, but what can I say!? It's really worth it!

Thanks to the developer for all the effort...

... and let's pray that some developer-genius might add a slicky slim-highslid-lightbox super-duper popup image-plugin for free some time..

As a Joomla professional having installed and administered a ton of Joomla sites over the years, this is by far the best WYSIWYG editor to date.

Easy to install, simple to configure, yet powerful enough to provide the kind of functionality necessary for any level of 'end-user client expertise'.

This slick little editor goes in all our Joomla installs as a matter of course.

A++

I am a Joomla! newbie. I tried and tried to get JoomlaFCS editor work with much anguish. JCE worked right the first time, I should have just used this to begin with.

Good job ladies and gentlemen!
