Setting the Editor for Ektron CMS400.NET Users

Each Web server that hosts Ektron CMS400.NET has two editor options: one for clients that run Windows and another for clients using MacIntosh. Your system administrator determines the editor options in the site’s web.config file, using the following settings.

<appSettings>
        .
        !-- EditControlWin may be either "ContentDesigner" or "eWebEditPro" or "UserPreferred" -->
            <add key="ek_EditControlWin" value="UserPreferred" />
            <!-- EditControlMac Only "ContentDesigner" -->
            <add key="ek_EditControlMac" value="ContentDesigner" />
        .
        </appSettings>

The table below contains information about both editors.
