Install N1ED extension for Joomla

Looking for Joomla 3 installation?

The N1ED extension gives Joomla a WYSIWYG editor built on TinyMCE: Bootstrap blocks and grid, widgets, the file manager and the image editor, all configured for one API key. One package serves Joomla 5 and Joomla 4; Joomla 3 has its own legacy package.

  • Download Joomla 5 extension​

    The same package installs on Joomla 5 and Joomla 4.

    Download Joomla extension

    You can also skip the download: the next step can install N1ED straight from the Joomla Extensions Directory.

  • Install Joomla 5 or 4 extension​

    Open System → Install → Extensions and drop the package onto the Upload Package File tab: the installation starts by itself.

    Or open the Install from Web tab, search for “n1ed” and press Install.

    • Uploading the N1ED extension package in the Joomla extension installer
      Upload Package File: the downloaded package
    • Installing the N1ED extension from the Install from Web tab of the Joomla extension installer
      Install from Web: N1ED in the Extensions Directory

  • Set API key​

    Open Components → N1ED Content Editor, press Set API key in the N1ED panel and paste a key from your Dashboard. No account yet? The Register new account link next to it creates one for free.

    The key links your site to its configuration in the Dashboard: the toolbar, widgets, blocks and the file storage. Until you set it, the extension runs on a shared demo key.

  • Enable N1ED​

    Make N1ED the default editor: open System → Global Configuration, choose N1ED in Default Editor on the Site tab and press Save.

    A user whose profile names an editor of their own keeps it. Set that user's Editor to Use Default in Users → Manage, on the Basic Settings tab.

    • Choosing N1ED as the Default Editor in the Joomla Global Configuration

  • Edit articles with N1ED​

    Open Content → Articles → New: the article text opens in N1ED.

    • A new Joomla article edited with N1ED: the N1ED toolbar and a Bootstrap block

Configuration​

The extension keeps only the API key. The toolbar, widgets, Bootstrap blocks and the file storage are configured for that key in the Dashboard.
