Activating CKEditor for a Site Collection

This website contains links to software which is either no longer maintained or will be supported only until the end of 2019 (CKFinder 2). For the latest documentation about current CKSource projects, including software like CKEditor 4/CKEditor 5, CKFinder 3, Cloud Services, Letters, Accessibility Checker, please visit the new documentation website.

If you look for an information about very old versions of CKEditor, FCKeditor and CKFinder check also the CKEditor forum, which was closed in 2015. If not, please head to StackOverflow for support.

To activate CKEditor for SharePoint for a site collection, go to the Site Actions menu in the root site of a site collection, and choose the Site Settings option.

CKEditorFiles Document Library

When CKEditor for SharePoint is installed, a special CKEditorFiles document library is created. The library stores CKEditor configuration files for site collections and individual sites, and should not be used for other purposes.
