Issue

  • The CKEditor toolbar has been simplified from DXP 7.3:

  • I would like to restore it to its DXP 7.2 functionality:

Environment

  • DXP 7.3
  • DXP 7.4

Resolution

  • CKEditor was simplified for 7.3, as documented in LPS-118213.
  • The previous functionality can be restored through a customization. Attached is an sample module which demonstrates how to restore the CKEdtior toolbar for 7.3.
    • You could adapt the sample to make it work in 7.4 by using toolbar instead of toolbar_liferay when populating the JSONObject.
