Adding a nice advanced text editor to make
wordpress wp-admin have Microsoft Word like edit fucntionality
By the default wordpress does not have support for changing the
exact font, therefore copying and pasting a text made in Open
Office or MS Word often places in the Post or Page wp edit fonts
different from the default one set for articles.
Hence some articles after being published on a wordpress blog show
up with improper font and the only way to fix that is to change the
font first in Open Office and then copy back to wordpress instead
of simply being able to change the font from within the wordpress
article.
To get around this problem, there is a nice plugin
fckeditor-for-wordpress-plugin which aids wordpress with an
awesome Word like edit functionalities.
, downhload location for
FCKEdit
for Wordpress is here
Here is a screenshot of the extra nice functionality the
FCKEditor for wordpress providces.
Installing the plugin is like installing any other wordpress plugin
and comes easily to:
debian:/~# cd /var/www/blog/wp-content/plugins
debian:/plugins# wget
http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/fckeditor-for-wordpress-plugin.3.3.1.zip
...
debian:/plugins# unzip
fckeditor-for-wordpress-plugin.3.3.1.zip
...
debian:/plugins# cd
fckeditor-for-wordpress-plugin/
And further enabling the plugin from:
Plugins -> Inactive -> (Dean's FCKEditor For
Wordpress) Enable
fckeditor for wordpress will replace the default wordpress editor
TinyMCE straight after being enabled.
Now really file editting inside wordpress admin panel is way easier
and convenient
Cheers
