CKSource

CKEditor 3.x is a new version of our previous editor, known as FCKeditor 2.x. The 3.x line brought about not only a name change, but also a complete rewrite of the product, including major changes in its architecture. To make upgrading existing customizations easier, the table below lists the mappings between the configuration settings of CKEditor and its predecessor.
