CK Editor 5 Pro For Redmine

CK Editor is the best HTML editor with the cleanest code. The original author of the Redmine CK Editor plugin, "Akihiro Ono": https://www.redmine.org/plugins/redmine-ckeditor, is longer using Redmine and thus can't maintain the CK Editor plugin. Therefore, we took over this great plugin and according to open source standards, we took over the development. We are humbled we can do this for the Redmine community and this plugin will be forever FREE.

Copy formatted content from Word, Excel, Google Docs, ChatGPT, emails and other business tools into Redmine without rebuilding the formatting.
RedmineX CK Editor 5 Pro replaces Redmine's markup-based editing experience with a modern WYSIWYG HTML editor while keeping the Redmine workflows users already rely on. Paste rich content, edit it visually, mention users and groups, reference issues and keep HTML emails readable instead of exposing users to a sea of HTML tags.

The result is less time spent fixing formatting and more consistent content across issues, comments and other Redmine text fields.
