## How to customize editor (optional, Strapi v3)

If you want to change appearance of the editor or remove unused buttons you can add a custom CKEditor configuration to override default settings:

0. Go to your Strapi folder

1. Copy template config file [`node_modules/strapi-plugin-ckeditor5/admin/src/config/ckeditor.js`](admin/src/config/ckeditor.js) to `extensions/ckeditor5/admin/src/config`

2. Set up `extensions/ckeditor5/admin/src/config/ckeditor.js` (see [CKEditor configuration guide](https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/builds/guides/integration/configuration.html))

3. Rebuild Strapi

```bash
npm run strapi build
```

### Configuration example (Strapi v3)

```js
// ckeditor.js
module.exports = {
    // Override toolbar config to leave a few buttons
    toolbar: {
        items: [
            "heading",
            "|",
            "bold",
            "italic",
            "link",
            "alignment",
            "|",
            "undo",
            "redo",
        ],
    },
};
```
