CKEditor in OJS 3.3.0-20

Software Support
1

I would like to integrate CKEditor into OJS as the tinymce is making me crazy. I have lost the advanced settings we had in Tinymce with the 3.3.0-20 upgrade even though the settings are set in the config.inc.php under allowed tags.

Two questions please.

  1. How do I do it ?
  2. In the CKEditor, it has the following questions. Which is appropriate for OJS?

Select your setup

Pick technology:

Interesting, but it is not a free product and doesn’t comply with PKP software being open source.

Read CKEditor Licensing and the FAQs carefully. As far as I understand, the license for self-hosting is commercial, open source seems to be cloud-hosted. Which for many OJS installations would be no-go because of data protection issues (at least, at our university it would be like this).
