For sites with several contributors, WP Edit Pro lets administrators arrange every editor toolbar row and assign button layouts by user role. The base WP Edit version offers drag-and-drop arrangement for the top row; Pro extends that control to all rows and adds network installation support and the Extreme Custom Widget Builder.

Set up editor buttons for each role

Arrange buttons across the editor toolbars with drag-and-drop controls, then configure various arrangements for different user roles. The broader WP Edit editor includes utilities for inserting pictures, media, YouTube videos, and clip art. Its graphical table interface creates tables and adjusts cell borders and background colors. Other buttons include subscript, superscript, emoticons, search and replace, an HTML editor, and preview.

WP Edit also has a custom buttons API that lets add-on and theme developers add their editor buttons to the configuration, where customers can choose their placement.

Build reusable content

The Extreme Custom Widget Builder creates widgets in a way similar to creating posts or pages. Place a custom widget in any widget area or insert it into the content editor. WP Edit also provides access to WordPress shortcodes, including those for columns and magazine-style layouts. Shortcodes can be used in excerpt and widget areas, and the editor can be added to excerpts and profile descriptions.

Other WP Edit options include formatting fonts, styles, colors, and sizes; working with external media such as YouTube and Vimeo; highlighting admin posts and pages by status; and importing or exporting extension options.

Use WP Edit Pro on a network

WP Edit Pro includes network installation functionality and is described as WP Network Ready. This supports WordPress network installations that need editor configuration across network websites.

After installing WP Edit Pro, arrange the toolbar rows, configure role-based button layouts, and create widgets for the content editor or widget areas.
