Many of you are ahead of the game on Drupal and already know what i’m about to talk about. I will admit that I am slow to learning new things, even when they are apparently right before my eyes. I have been an active Drupal user for quite some time, and have heard the use of a TinyMCE editor inside Drupal but have completely ignored it. Then the “light bulb” finally went on in my head.

You can have the same Wysiwyg inside Drupal that the WordPress CMS has? Really? No way? Yeah way!

I personally do not need a Wysiwyg, as many of you readers are probably the same way. But my customers need them. Otherwise, i’m stuck training a client HTML. And that’s not what I intend on doing the rest of my life. The module is simply called the WYSIWYG API for Drupal. It’s simple to install, just make sure that you follow the instructions step by step. There are a few additional steps you need to make when setting it up than your typical Drupal module. Here’s a little screenshot of what the editor looks like in your Drupal admin:

My Favorite Feature of this Module

My favorite feature of the TinyMCE drupal module is that you can configure your settings to what buttons you want on your editor for your website. The options are presented with simple checkboxes next to them, allowing you to uncheck the ones you won’t find useful. This allows you to customize your wysiwyg editor to your likings and give you more (or less) functionality. Both can be a good thing depending on your project.
