Issue

Apply a config contributor using a client extension to CKEditor in web content following the official documentation or the provided example does not show any changes in the web content editor.

Environment

  • Quarterly Releases

Resolution

The main issue is that the filter applied in client-extension.yml does not include the editor:

editorConfigKeys:
- description
- sampleAlloyEditor
- sampleClassicEditor
- sampleLegacyEditor

If you want to add this editor, you need to modify the client-extension.yml file by adding rich_text to editorConfigKeys or removing this configuration entirely (in that case, no filter is applied).

editorConfigKeys:
- description
- sampleAlloyEditor
- sampleClassicEditor
- sampleLegacyEditor
- contentEditor
- rich_text
- descriptionMapAsXMLEditor

Additional information

  • There is an issue that causes a duplicated button after adding a plugin. Please open a ticket to apply the hotfix LPD-21017 to resolve the issue.
