Powerful Visual Editing
Document Actions
Producing consistent layouts has never been easier.
Authors enjoy working with word processors, and CMS teams have
responded with browser-based visual editors. Most solutions stop at the
basics of text highlighting and image insertion, but the new release of
Plone achieves a productive balance between user freedom and layout
consistency.
Plone 2.1 includes the cross-CMS Kupu editor and provides superb CMS integration. Kupu gives browser-based conversion of Microsoft's proprietary, polluted markup into standards-compliant, clean XHTML, as well as a high-performance asset browser for images and links. The Plone integration extends the many Kupu features to include configuration of editor features, handling broken links, and much more.
All of this means that users will have a more familiar, desktop-style editor for editing their content.
The visual editor also has an option to hide everything but the editor itself — letting you focus on what's important: producing high-quality content.
Of course, for users that prefer to edit their content in Microsoft Word, Macromedia Dreamweaver, or other client-side programs, Plone still offers the External Editor option — allowing users to seamlessly edit web content with a client-side application. Plone can even transform non-web content (like Microsoft Word documents) to HTML — automatically.
