Improve the WYSIWYG editor completed
I'd love to let one of my customers edit their restaurant menu using CushyCMS, but it's a fairly complex table and appears pretty poorly in the WYSIWYG editor.
Valid point- we're looking into replacing the WYSIWYG editor with something nicer. We'll probably even give designers the choice between several.
Here's the shortlist: FCKEditor / WYMeditor / YUI

I would love to see a medium version of TinyMCE instead of FCKeditor.

I had problems editing a relative link that was already in the code. It didn't display when I highlighted it and clicked the "add link" button.

I think just having the ability to turn off the basic editor and enter raw code would be nice. No need to setup an entirely different "advanced" editor

Letting designers choose what WYSIWYG to show to the editors is a great idea. Some "editors" really shouldn't have the power that most advanced WYSIWYGs give them.

a basic / advanced choice would be nice... basic, predefined classes for editors/clients (as 'intheory' states) is a really great solution

I eval'd 3 or 4 WYSIWYG tools for a commercial CMS. Its a struggle to please a broad user base. Some editors offer an array of complex editing tools but anger power users who'd rather edit raw code. Others are locked-down (eg. drop-down with predefined classes only). Allowing clients the ability to setup a config file for editors on a site by site basis would be great, but a lot of backend work.

Hopefully the WYSIWYG wouldn't need to be as complex as the advanced TinyMCE, but it should at least allow headings 1-6, divs, etc.
