What is inline editing in Joomla?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 7:58 am

Inline editing is a feature in Joomla that allows users to make changes directly to the content of a page. This is different from traditional editing where changes are made to the layout or structure of the document.

Inline editing is powerful because it allows users to make changes right on the page where the content is being displayed. This makes it easy for users to see what changes they are making, and it makes it easy for Joomla to keep track of which changes have been made.

PRO TIP: Inline editing in Joomla! is a great way to quickly edit articles on your site without having to open each one individually in the Article Manager. However, it’s important to remember that inline editing is only available for articles that you have permission to edit. If you try to inline edit an article that you don’t have permission to edit, you will receive an error message.

One downside to inline editing is that it can be difficult to know where to make changes. This is because inline editing is limited to the text area on the page.

Users cannot make changes to the layout or structure of the document. This can be a problem if users need to make changes to these aspects of the document.

Inline editing is a powerful tool that can be helpful for users. However, it can be difficult to use if users need to make changes to the layout or structure of the document.
