The WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) feature allows you to format the body of your content without needing to know or use HTML tags. While allowing users access to certain tags, it restricts who may use what in order to provide sufficient site security to potentially malicious HTML.
- Roles: There are five roles set up in all the Debut features (anonymous, authenticated, contributor, editor and administrator). Each of these roles has different permissions for what a user with this role may or may not do on the site.
- Input formats: the WYSIWYG feature creates three different input formats.
- WYSIWYG public
- WYSIWYG contributor
- WYSIWYG editor
- WYSIWYG public is set as the default format that all roles may use.
- WYSIWYG contributor may be used by the administrator, contributor and editor.
- WYSIWYG editor may be used by the administrator and editor.
- Someone with a higher level of permissions may choose to use a lower level input format if a simpler set of buttons is preferred.
- Linking roles and input formats: the WYSIWYG feature links roles with the appropriate input format as follows:
- anonymous: site default
- authenticated: site default
- contributor: WYSIWYG contributor
- editor: WYSIWYG editor
- administrator: Full HTML
