Installation

This extension assumes that your TYPO3 CMS installation uses CKEditor as text editor. Please make sure that CKEditor is installed and working properly.

Since CKEditor is the default text editor since TYPO3 CMS v8, the extension should work out-of-the-box for most TYPO3 CMS installations.
