In Tiki, we have several editors, such as Markdown, Summernote, and the default Tiki editor, which allow users to create and edit web pages without any knowledge of HTML or CSS.

With Tiki, you don’t need to be a developer to create something amazing, and you are never limited by the tools Tiki offers because it provides thousands of features designed to make your life easier.

It is with this vision that we integrated Summernote, which is a very cool, intuitive, and easy-to-use WYSIWYG editor.

Summernote was introduced in Tiki 29.0 as the default editor for the WYSIWYG mode. The previous WYSIWYG editor was CKEditor, but they changed their license so we could no longer include it built-in.

As you can see in the previous image, Summernote requires no prior knowledge to use. You have a writing space and very intuitive icons above it to help you make your text beautiful and visually appealing. The way you write your text will be an exact reflection of how your web page will look. Cool, right? (What can’t be done in Tiki? So coooool!)

The first icon allows you to make your text bold.

The fourth and fifth icons are mainly for mathematicians (subscripts and superscripts—a little something for the intellectuals... lol).

The sixth icon is for adding color to your text, and it’s super simple to use. Just select your text, click on the icon, choose the color, and boom—it’s done! Your text now has a new color. Cool, right? Alright, I know you probably already knew that. I just wanted to chat and play the intellectual... lol.
