JCK Editor 
- Yes
Most remarkably the JCK Editor is a free content editor for Joomla! It is free for you to use and install on any of your sites under the GPL licence!
★IPAD & IPHONE RESPONSIVE
For the first time you don’t need a special Joomla Mobile App to upload and manage your website on your iPad or on your iPhone! This is because the JCK Editor is now responsive in Joomla 3.0!
This approach suggests that design should respond to the user’s behaviour and environment based on screen size, platform and device. With the newly designed dialog screens the editor now offers support for the new IOS 6 file upload which wasn’t possible in Safari until now!
★NEXT-GENERATION GRAPHICS
We've taken the Editor to the design shop and married creative and technical disciplines into a truly beautiful and user-friendly interface. Your find it easier to use, more productive, a tool which aims to put the user in the driving seat.
★CUSTOMIZABLE INTERFACE
Everyone likes to edit their own way, so we’ve made it easier to adjust the JCK interface. Re-arrange, organize, add or remove buttons or change the colour of the skin in the editor’s parameters.
★SUPER-FAST PERFORMANCE
Fasten your seatbelt the API engine has always been fast, but this is the fastest ever! It gives the editor dramatically better performance than ever before which means, web editing will feel snappier and more responsive. It’s astonishingly 18x times faster at loading than the JCE Editor – having only a tiny memory footprint, so users can work faster and be more productive! But hey - if you don't believe us, why don't you give it a try and see how fast you can go?
★STATE-OF-THE-ART INTEGRATION
Its much more than an out-of-the-box installation of the CKeditor! We’ve been under-the-hood and joomla-ised its logic into a seamless and extendable integration. Users can now choose what plug-ins, tool-bars and shape its architecture in all sense of the word - with ease!
★LARGEST PLUGIN REPOSITORY
Plug-ins are the cornerstone of customisation, letting you personalize your editing experience. These apps can be used to quickly and simply expand the functionality of the editor and with the largest growing extension base of all Joomla editors, you'll be able - to do much more…
★MANAGE YOUR FILES IN ONE PLACE
Upload images and files, view thumbnails in one place without needing to navigate away! It doesn’t stop there as Joomla! user groups can have their own personal folders, which can be used in a verity of ways! For storing online documents, for nested folders, for relative links to media, flash, electronic documents and image files. The best part is its simplicity - it’s useful, fun, totally
It's impressive the way they used the ms office layout to make it even easier to find the right tool in the toolbar. A+ to this editor.
I like the way i can specify different folders to images and flash files, because its the way i always do.
Download - Install - Enjoy!
Easy to use, easy to install, lot of features....
Thanks for the great work...
Hi fnanco, thank you for your support and delight that you like it! I have replied to your request for the editor to work with the Azrul's My blog on the forms. Take care (o:b
First disappointment: Configuring FCK Editor semms only possible by editing js-files (boring)
Second: When resizing images, the original file ist altered. That means, no chance to use the same image in three different articles in three different sizes, you have to create 3 versions of that file (unefficient - Content Optimizer does it better...)
Third: (At least) in firefox 3.0 the popups are to small: you have to resize the window in order to reach the OK-button (ImageManager, New Folder)
Nevertheless a lean and quick install, a well done UI (if you like/use MSO) but still not the cream of the crop at the top of the heap.
(1.) You do not configure the editor by going to the js-files, the configuration for the editor is found by going to the plugin manager, this is how Joomla work for all plugin’s! (2.) You do not use the image editor to change the way in which an article displays an image. While inserting an image simply type in the dimensions within the dialog box. That is how you would insert the same image in a hundred different articles all being the different size. (3.) Tested in FF1.0 to 3.5 and cannot reproduce the same.
My one suggestion :::: I tried to install JoomlaFCK Editor directly giving url but there is error because file is compressed with another format that joomla can't install directly. If you place zip format for direct installation it will be very very easy for new as well as all joomla users.
Lastly, congratulation to JoomlaFCK Editor team for the great product.
Hi gautam, thank you for your support & review. We found if the installation file is over 1MB some peoples server’s timeout on installation. Therefore we have chosen to compress the file in .gunzip simply because the compressions rate. Joomla support .gunzip & unpacks it so I can’t see why it couldn’t via url? Thanks
Thanks Craig for shouting out! We would love you to keep using it and realize that the recent faults with the TinyMice editor has seen many move away from the stock editor to us. A big thanks from the team (o:b
But, I was wondering if this program can or will it be able to copy and paste not just words but also the automatically upload the images/tables that are embedded in a Word file?
Can the program be able to create a folder for each user must like JCE can right now. the folder can only be accessed by the user when they are submitting article?
Keep up the good job!
Good news!!!- it can use a folder for each user for images. There is an option in the plug-in manager. Thanks & enjoy!
It's got great controls, and an excellent image manager. There is a terrific feature that lets you tweak your table cells and borders with a lot of precision.
The image uploader is great for browsing your site's assets and editing images before or after inserting in the article.
The text insert functions really work for adding MS Word text into the article cleanly.
Keep in mind that the entire field of WYSIWYG editors is still developing. Even with this editor, now and then, some odd things happen. Sometimes formats refuse to "take," or something just doesn't look the same in the final article as it did in the editor. This happens with all editors to one extent or another. But I have found that JoomlaFCK is more reliable than the others and gets closer to true WYSIWYG functionality.
And it's totally free.
Hi Matthew, we are really pleased you like it. One of the editors leading features is it ability to translate Microsoft Word to HTML. JoomlaFCK is based upon the FCK code which is noted for its abilities in translating theses identities. And - therefore boast in a better-quality translation that those based upon Moxiecode which include JCE and the stock Joomla! editor, tinymce.
At least prove it, if you don´t like it (maybe) you don´t loose anything.
Hi edy, thanks for positive review. It great to have feed-back from one our international users, much appreciated (o:b
The interface was very clean and fast. Having a Word look and feel made it quick to take up. Also using this editor for inserting pdfs, files, images etc is so easy because you don't have to remember the path to the file. JoomlaFCK lets you create those links just by using the mouse!
Thank you JoomlaFCK. A truly great free product.
Hi Zeebie, Thank you for your contribution both here (on the JED) and on the JoomlaFCK forums. – It’s a great encouragement to find a user who is willing to give a few minutes to carrying the project forward. (o:b
1). Find fckeditor.class.php in your fck install directory;
2). Find string oFCKeditor.Config["UseAspell"] = '. (function_exists("pspell_check")) .';
3). Replace it with oFCKeditor.Config["UseAspell"] = "'. (function_exists("pspell_check")) .'";
Enjoy;
This error only occurred if a user was using an older version of PHP. We became aware of this several days ago. This has addressed in the latest tgz package. So please REDOWNLOAD. (o:b
If Joomla! wanted it as a default install we would certainly welcome the opportunity but I think there main focus is on improving the Joomla! framework! - Thanks.
I like the editor and I have a suggestion for the future versions: create an option to disable right click context menu, so that sloppy users like myself can use the default browser menu with options like *spell checking*, etc. I really, really need to use the browser's spell checker and I can't. I am rather frustrated about this.
Does anyone know how to disable the context menu that I really don't need?
Pretty please!
Hi, this is something we will consider. BUT if it is the case that the default spell checker is greyed out and your only option is to use the browsers spell check, version 2.6.4 may come as a welcomed surprise! It now uses WebSpellChecker", a zero installation and free spell checker which now will give you a powerful alternative.
Fast, powerfull but not upload media function is really a problem and plugin flv is very bad.
regards
In being prudent, I personal tested version's 2.6.3.9b flash plugin & wasn’t able to reproduce the problem in FF3,Safari,IE7 or within new IE8 browsers. We haven’t received any bugs reporting the same & I haven’t been able to find a ticket on fckeditor.net! May I invite you to detail the issue on our site & we will look into it 4 u?
thanks
We’ve been caught up on a few commercial projects over the last few months BUT we have penciled in time AND the next few weeks will see us release a new version (2.6.4). I think you will like it!
Fantastic job people. Keep up the great work.
Thanks cmscritic, appreciate your support.
Thank You!
We are planning to release a component for it shortly BUT we have designed it in a way in which the editor will still work without it! Yes it easy, doesn’t require a component one installation and you are up and running.
Thank you SSwamp_Trooper, your comment is much appreciated but I think some of the appreciation should be directed towards the JED team whom spent hours of there time administrating our reviews. Thank you d:o)
maybe because i made good experience in other systems.
Thanks and enjoy it.
