• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Plesk Web Editor question

Guest
We are currently using cPanel and are not quite satisfied, so we are currently looking at switching over to Plesk. One of our major issues with cPanel is the built-in WYSIWYG html-editor (wysiwygpro). It has a bug concerning the use of special chars (like the swedish åäö and the german ü) (bug report).

We're interested in Plesk and the Plesk Web Editor (not SiteBuilder), but it is not featured in the demo, and the trial version of Plesk I have will not install locally (and I do not wish to install it on the production server while cPanel is running).

My question is simple: Anyone here use the web editor, and what are your experiences with it? I am particularly interested in experiences from say Germany, France, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, since we usually have problems with software configured for UTF-8 (we prefer iso-8859-1) and for whom special characters absolutely must work without problems (éèêô for france, üö för germany, åäö för sweden etc).

So, anyone out there have any experience with the Plesk Web Editor? Are there any pitfalls or bugs concerning this, or can I smoothly switch to Plesk and not have to worry about this?
 
We have found that unless you use UTF-8 page encoding things go horribly wrong when editing pages with PPWSE (Plesk Professional Website Editor - which is what I think you are referring to. Plesk also has a CMS option which is basically just Mambo).
