Description
This is the back-end screen where you can add and edit Articles. The same screen is used for adding a new
Article and editing an existing Article. You can also select the Section and Category for an Article and
indicate whether or not it is Published and if it is selected to appear on the Front Page.
The Article's content is edited using the default editor selected in the User Manager - New/Edit. The
Joomla! default editor is called TinyMCE. Ripplenet have installed the JCE editor, which is better suited to
pages that have embedded coding.
