Introduction

Editors

Editing your Joomla website is now a breeze with the revolutionary ARK Editor Pro! It's familiar to use due to its modern Windows Metro-like interface and usability testing, yet configurable enough for enterprise developments!

You can customise its toolbar virtually any direction and assign it to your favourite screen. In Joomla 4, it ties seamlessly into the core Media manager, which now comes equipped with image editing and cropping, and takes things a step further with document management!

With Drag-n-drop upload, Paste from Word, Spell Check As You Type, Content Linking, Customise editing interface, Auto Template Parser for your styles and typography, Auto Save, Users Permissions, Syntax highlighter and comes with Supporting Apps!

All our extensions are released under the GPLv2 License (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html).

?? Broken ??



Posted on 29 March 2023
Functionality
I am using version 2.6.15 on multiple websites
Today, all sites seem to have broken.
Ease of use
When trying to enter any article on the backend that uses this editor, the site crashes with the following error:
Support
DOMDocument::loadHTML(): Argument #1 ($source) must not be empty
Documentation
It would appear arkextensions com site is OFFLINE today, i cannot access it to download a new version.
I used this to: Perhaps their site being offline is what has broken my sites? I don't know??
Owner's reply: Sorry about that, garethpullen. You're right! We moved servers, and the IP address on our CDN wasn't updated, which was the issue. This has been fixed!

The good news is we're moving the project back home to Webx and will soon close the ageing Ark website. You'll have a new, updated, modern support portal. I hope this assures you of our continuing efforts. Many thanks, Paul :)

All the missing stuff in Joomla



Posted on 28 January 2018
Functionality
Amazing. Just....amazing.
Ease of use
For all this does, and it does a lot, it's actually rather intuitive. Very well thought out.
Support
I went a few months on the free version, and still got the equivalent of pro ticket help.
Documentation
Not much needed, but it's just as well thought out as the UI. Clean, well done.
I used this to: After using it in trial mode on several sites, I bought the full package as it solved so many problems *my clients* were having editing their sites. It even works on the front end, - in the core component! - which is Joomla's biggest weakness.

Very good for editing content



Posted on 29 August 2017
Functionality
Extensive, perhaps more than I need
Ease of use
Very ease an intuitive
I used this to: Editing content. It is better than the editor that comes with Joomla! when it comes to uploading and adding media to articles.

Excellent!

Fantastic



Posted on 11 April 2017

A ton of functions, probably more than you ever need. I only used a limited set of buttons in the editor.
Ease of use
Installation was easy, no errors. Configuration was easy.
I used this to: Webpage submission forms.
Owner's reply: Hi Lars, thank you for the great review and delighted to hear that you are enjoying it. :)

Front end capability; overall flexibility



Posted on 13 January 2017
Functionality
Excellent. The facility to have different toolbars in different scenarios is brilliant. For example, a simple toolbar for front end editors.
Ease of use
Very good. Covers all the bases. Some difficulty in getting different configurations to stick.
Support
Just out of an issue where support was exemplary.
I used this to: Not-for-profit public and internal resource sites.
Owner's reply: All the best with the non-profit project!

Makes SEO score 7% worse



Posted on 27 December 2016
Functionality
When I first used it, it seem great. Later I noticed that front-end modules loading and SEO slowed by 7%. Removed it and score is higher
Ease of use
Yes, it's very easy to install and use. However, uninstalling requires some effort. There are SEVERAL plug ins and then the components.
I used this to: Backend editing
Owner's reply: Hi Web Dude, I hope my reply will encourage you to rethink, assure you of our support and perhaps you may even consider revising this review.

FUNCTIONALITY
With regards to the SEO the editing state is only active when you are logged in on your Joomla website and have the editing permissions to edit. With adding any new functionality there will of course be a memory footprint but as the inline editing is only there when you are logged in as an editor, and isn’t presented when your website is in its normal state, it shouldn’t have any SEO impact. If you somehow tested this in an editing state, then you could have received a false positive. If this wasn't the case, then please contact us and we will be happy to look into it for you.

EASE OF USE
Our editor is plugin based which allows for user permissions to be set in this way. It allows greater flexibility in keeping with Joomla’s logic, but you shouldn’t try to uninstall the editor on a plugin by plugin bases. Nowadays Joomla’s installer supports ‘Packages’. All you need do is to select the Ark Editor package & it will uninstall it for you in one go, please see our documentation on this: http://tiny.cc/wvx5hy

Many thanks, Paul F
