Installing the Tiny Editors

Tiny Editors: TinyMCE and Textbox.io for HCL Connections are provided as a packaged set of files ready to deploy as an Connections JavaScript customization.

Before you install:
  • Ensure you have downloaded the latest version of the Tiny Editors for Connections package and uncompress the package.
  • Read and follow the Customizing the Ephox Editor section before you install any files on the server.
  • If you are installing Tiny Editors for HCL Connections into a clustered instance of Connections and have not put the customization subdirectory on a shared file system, accessible by all nodes, you need to install Tiny Editors for Connections manually on each node.
