Symptoms

When using cPanel's File Manager, the "HTML Editor" tool is no longer available for editing.

 

Description

File Manager's "HTML Editor" tool utilizes the CKEditor software, which has been removed from all supported versions of cPanel & WHM due to security concerns.

 

Workaround

While cPanel Support does not recommend continuing to use this software due to security concerns, you can reinstall CKEditor at your own risk by following the steps below.

  1. Access the server's command line as the 'root' user via SSH or "Terminal" in WHM.
  2. Set CKEditor as an installed package.  
    /scripts/update_local_rpm_versions --edit target_settings.ckeditor installed
  3. Run the check_cpanel_pkgs script to reinstall the package. 
    /scripts/check_cpanel_pkgs --fix --no-digest
