TinyMCE 6.8: Advanced Templates {{clipboard}} tag, improved bundling support and more

TinyMCE 6.8 Release Notes - Overview

The latest version of TinyMCE was released on December 6, 2023. This release brings with it enhancements to Advanced Templates, improved bundling support, several accessibility improvements, as well as 24 bug fixes.

What's New and Improved

  1. Advanced Templates now supports the {{mce-clipboard}} which lets you specify a location, within your content snippet, where you want the clipboard’s content to be inserted

  2. Improved Bundling Support We’ve made all our plugins compatible with popular bundlers like Webpack, Browserify, Rollup and more

  3. Improved accessibility improvements for all TinyMCE plans to make the editor more reliable and compliant to a11y standards:

    • Color picker is fully navigable by keyboard
    • Accessible names for URL and source buttons in link and image dialogs
    • Screen reader announcements for toolbar buttons that have text labels (e.g. format, font family, and font size)
    • Heading tags inside Accordion summaries
  4. Bug Fixes: TinyMCE 6.8 includes fixes for 24 bug fixes reported by the community. See the changelog for details.

NOTE: ALL Accounts are required to have a valid API key

All editors on our cloud platform are required (from early 2024) to have a valid API key. Without a valid API key, your editor will transition to read-only mode, limiting your ability to make changes. Read the Invalid API key Docs for more information.

How to Get Access to TinyMCE 6.8

  • If you're already on TinyMCE 6, upgrading is simple:

    • Cloud users will receive 6.8 automatically
    • Self-hosted users should update to the latest version
  • If you're still on TinyMCE 4 or 5, now is a great time to upgrade to 6.8. TinyMCE 5 reached end of support in April 2023.

  • If the premium plugins mentioned are not available in your current plan, contact our Customer Success team about upgrading your account. You can also sign up for a free 14-day trial of TinyMCE premium plugins.

One extremely powerful typescript feature is automatic type narrowing based on control flow. This means a variable has two types associated with it at any specific point of code location: a declaration type and a narrowed type.

#3 Use discriminated union instead of optional fields
