Hello CMSMS Community,

For those who love the stability of CMSMS 2.x but want a more modern content editing experience, I'm happy to release MicroTinyV7 :)

This module is a complete, feature-rich replacement for the core MicroTiny editor, upgrading the engine from TinyMCE v4 to the latest TinyMCE v7.

Key Upgrades:
  • Modern TinyMCE 7 Interface: A faster, cleaner, and more powerful editor.
  • Rewritten CMSMS Linker: Features a live, as-you-type page search.
  • Advanced Mailto Plugin: A true WYSIWYG experience for {mailto} tags with visual placeholders and a full-featured dialog.
  • Full FilePicker Integration: Works seamlessly with the official FilePicker module, including uploads and directory navigation.
My goal was to create a safe, drop-in replacement that deeply respects the CMSMS ecosystem while providing the modern tools we've all been waiting for.

A note on transparency: To accelerate the development process and overcome some of the complexities of the new TinyMCE 7 API, this project was developed with significant assistance from Google's Gemini Pro model (via AI Studio). It has been a fascinating and productive collaboration between a human developer and an AI, and I wanted to share that aspect of the journey with you all.

You can download the first stable release and see the full feature list on GitHub:

I hope you find it useful. All feedback is welcome!
