What's being used in DNN is like a "server side code" wrapper around CKEditor.
The server side code is used to inject the editor and write the "resulting html to the server, but also for the CkEditor options.
CKEditor itself is obviously "just" javascript.
As CKEditor 5 is very different from 4, you won't be able to do a simple upgrade IMO as you would need to change the attached server code too. I actually wondered today if I could overwrite the 4.5.3 editor files (the JS files) with 4.13.1, but I'm not sure that would work.
It also depends on how much has changed between 4.5.3 and 4.13.1

Timo that's way above my level of expertise.

The reason i was interested in upgrading is i see that tables that get displayed are now much cleaner and scrollable when viewed on a mobile phone then what i am getting currently getting and i thought that was a fucntion of the new ckEditor. See how these tables on the following link scroll when viewed from a mobile phone -

 https://ckeditor.com/docs...basic-table-features

my tables in my website do not scroll this way and i thought that was a ckeditor function.

Normally the scrolling is done using CSS, I expect that CKEditor 5 inserts any extra html/ classes or CSS for that.
The easiest solution I know of requires an extra div: https://www.w3schools.com...table_responsive.asp

Timo thank you ever so much that solves a major problem for me and also that w3schools site looks like a great resource for a newbie like me. I would have thought that dnn would wrap up a later version of ckEditor rather than web builders have to go into the code behind and modify.

Hi Bob, you can add a link to a style sheet in several places.

If it is going to be sitewide, or needed on a number of pages, then I'm guessing the best plan to add it would be in the skin you are using: typically under this directory
wwwroot\Portals\_default\Skins\mySkinName

However if you only need it one place, or for testing, you can also add it per page, by going to Page Settings | Advanced and there's a place to enter "Page Stylesheet".

You can also go (with the HTML module at least) to the Module Settings dialog and there is a place to add content to the page header & footer. This isn't so elegant, but it you only need it in one place it is an option.

 I would have thought that dnn would wrap up a later version of ckEditor rather than web builders have to go into the code behind and modify.

 

I just want to make a comment on this statement.

It is important to understand exactly how "dnn" is.  The short summary is that "dnn" is us.

DNN is an open source project, and maintenance and development of the project is the focus of the "DNN Community."  The organizational structure and work on the platform is nearly 100% the work of volunteers.

If you have a specific wish list item, bug report, or other suggestion you can go to the Github page for the DNN project at https://github.com/dnnsof.../Dnn.Platform/issues and create a new issue.

 

 

 

Hi, I am running DNN 9.6.1 with Extensions 'CK Editor Editor Provider 2.1.27' , and 'DNN Connect CKEditor Provider 1.0.8'.

Which is the latest version of CK Editor that I can run inside DNN 9.6.1?

Thanks
Tom
