The Tiny MCE editor can be installed by adding the following NuGet package:

PM> install-package Piranha.Manager.TinyMCE

Default Editor Tools

By default the following tools are enabled by the editor:

Bold & Italic
Unordered & Ordered Lists
Horizontal Line
Left, Center & Right Alignment
Standard Header & Block Formats
Link Editor with CMS integration

Configuring The Editor

The editor can be customized either through code, or by creating a JSON config file with the editor configuration.

// editorconfig.json

  "plugins": "autoresize autolink code hr paste lists piranhalink piranhaimage",
  "toolbar": "bold italic | bullist numlist hr | alignleft aligncenter alignright | formatselect | piranhalink piranhaimage",
  "blockformats": "Paragraph=p;Header 1=h1;Header 2=h2;Header 3=h3;Header 4=h4;Code=pre;Quote=blockquote",

      "tag": "p",
      "type": "block",
      "classes": "lead"
    }
  ],

    Piranha.Manager.Editor.EditorConfig.FromFile("editorconfig.json");

    ...
