Using Kentico-based CSS styles with FCKEditor

Wednesday, February 03, 2010 06:34 | posted by: bryan

Kentico CMS is a great platform for developing and maintaining content driven websites. The product is extremely feature rich and allows nearly unlimited customizations for users. One of the most powerful features is the ability to design/format HTML content directly within the tool. This is accomplished with Kentico’s integration with FCKEditor (Now known as CKEditor). The FCKEditor (CKEditor) is a feature rich WYSIWYG utility that allows users to design and implement content and adds in all the appropriate HTML coding. [More]

Custom Styles / CSS using FCKEditor

Friday, November 21, 2008 06:17 | posted by: bryan

FCKEditor (link) is a powerful, open source HTML editor that is easily incorporated into nearly any site. It allows for customization of the interface, as well as options available to the user.

I recently found the need to customize the styles / CSS that users are able to select using the Editor. Often, users have many styles and fonts they put in a page and before you know it there are 1,000,000 sites with flying toasters and dramatic chipmunks on them again. Consistency and structure are the keys to any well-designed site. Allowing the user to only apply a pre-approved style / font to their content greatly reduces the risk of comic sans and animated gifs. [More]
