Although you wouldn't expect an application with the version number of 2.3.1.5 to contain anything but bug fixes, in the world of mojoPortal almost every release contains new features for the CMS. mojoPortal 2.3.1.5 is no different with a number of changes centered around rich text editors (WYSIWYG). TinyMCE has replaced FCKeditor as mojoPortal's primary text editor.
TinyMCE Editor Rises To The Top
For a long time now the FCKeditor has been the best editor available out of the box in mojoPortal. It was the only one with the ability to browse and upload images and files, it was the only one with integration for our Content Template System and Content Style System, and it was the only one with a spelling checker. Not anymore! I had not upgraded the Tiny MCE editor in a long time, I had tried to once and it broke and I was busy so I reverted to the working version. But recently we've been having some issues with FCKeditor so I decided to give the Tiny MCE upgrade another try.
Joe Audette, mojoPortal developer, writes that FCKeditor fans shouldn't feel like they're being left behind. mojoPortal also supports the CKEditor. The makers of FCKeditor realizing that the code base for their RTE was more than six years old and needing improvements began CKEditor as its replacement. CKEditor focuses on features such as accessibility and performance improvements that weren't quite there for FCKeditor.
Besides changes for TinyMCE and CKEditor, mojoPortal 2.3.1.5 also includes these enhancements:
- New Permissions Tab in site settings
- NeatUpload 1.3.18 upgrade
- The DOCTYPE changed to Html 5 for included skins
- The default 90 days allowed to comment on a new post post can be changed
- Removed Site Office
- New translations include Hebrew and Polish. The German translation has been updated.
mojoPortal can be downloaded by the site's official download page.
