I like this extension very much and I use it on different sites. That is why I translated it in italian.



I cannot understand why I sent a complete language package in italian and nobody answered to me, nor contacted me.



Moreover, I know that now somebody posted a complete italian pack on joomla.it site, but it is not included in JCE language packages... I think that it could be useful to have on official site instead of looking for it...

I was looking for a better way to edit pages and inserting pictures. the standard joomla way to insert first a tag called {mosimage} and select it from a list (where the picture must be already present, uploaded externally) was really too ugly.



With JCE uploading and inserting images is a piece of cake.



Anther improvement compared to the default TinyMCE WYSIWYG editor shipped with Joomla: nice HTML formatting (and word wrap).



What else? It's just the TinyMCE

I was a prior user of versions of JCE and was discouraged to see the Ryan had moved his Pop-up Image features behind a $20 membership charge to his site. Doing a bit of Googling around, it appears that I'm not the only one dismayed by this. I have elected to use another editor for all my Joomla sites.

I loved this editor for all its features until I hit one rather annoying snag.



When I use the Image Upload/Inserter the pop-out is somehow logging me out of the backend. Its the strangest thing but I've tried it on two different systems and on fresh Joomla! installs and I can consistently repeat the error.



I'm going to go explore and see if I can find something with more consistent functionality.

This is a nice component, although Im not totally sure what funcionality it hase over TinyMCE. I installed it because you can edit the layout of the toolbar, which is nice, because the default layout of JCE and TinyMCE caused formatting problems for the profile edit section on Commuity builder. One thing I would tell everyone is make SURE to look at the default settings for the image editor. As installed, JCE gives ALL registered users read/write access to Joomla's core images. I found out when I was doing some last minute testing on my test user account and was suprised to find out that as a simple registered user, I could delete all site images...wake up call!! To change the setting, just go do JCE backend/JCE Plugins/Image Manager and set to administrator, or who know, your Joomla head might get replaced by some beautiful banner add.

This editor is a vast improvement over tinyMCE.

And I really liked the lightbox utility, that makes my front page look sooo snazzy. The little magnifying glasses are so cute and I like the way they adjust to the padding around the image.



I had the issue with smoothgallery but I selected jquery in the jce mambot parameters and that fixed it.



I had to install the editor mambot manually but the instructions at the cellardoor site are very clear.



Well done and thanks.

I have used this software for some time and was always happy with it. Sadly, I have to agree with the previous reviewer. The latest release (V1.16) is full of bugs, unpredicatable and in all, virtually unusable. My posts on the JCE Forum and those of others are left unanaswered by the developer I could provide a list of around 12 areas where basic functionality is seriously flawed. My advise go back to V1.1 or use another editor.

good overall, is really useful for site admins to make up their content with all his options but the average load time per page made me restrict the use of it on the production site

Its the best!!!

This is my favourite editor. I really like the way of inserting images. I tried other ones but this one is the best. I also like that you can decide which buttons show in the editor, that's excellent if you don't want people to start adding an html formating for font for example... you just disable all the buttons for that, just use css instead. :o)

Thank you, great job!
