Let’s set up the WYSYWIG editor for the Band Wagon website, using the WYSIWYG module and CKEditor. Note that if you prefer a different WYSIWYG editor, such as TinyMCE or Aloha, the installation instructions are very similar. In this lesson we'll we'll not only get WYSIWYG set up, but we'll also enable the Media filter and integrate that with our WYSIWYG editor.
