Rich Text Editor
Schema Alias: Umbraco.RichText
UI Alias: Umb.PropertyEditorUi.Tiptap
Returns: HTML
In Umbraco 15, the Rich Text Editor has a new default property editor UI that introduces Tiptap as an alternative.
You can continue to use the TinyMCE UI for the Rich Text Editor. This UI will be removed in Umbraco 16.
Current limitations
Resizing media images has not been implemented yet.
The Rich Text Editor (RTE) Tiptap property editor is highly configurable and based on Tiptap. Depending on the configuration setup, it provides editors a lot of flexibility when working with content.
Customize everything from toolbar options to editor size to where pasted images are saved.
Define a cascading text formatting and style menu for the Rich Text Editor toolbar.
Use Blocks to define specific parts that can be added as part of the markup of the Rich Text Editor.
Extend the functionality of the Rich Text Editor with extensions.
Data Type Definition Example

Content Example

MVC View Example
With Models Builder
@{
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.RichText.ToString()))
{
<p>@Model.RichText</p>
}
}
Without Models Builder
@{
if (Model.HasValue("richText")){
<p>@(Model.Value("richText"))</p>
}
}
Add values programmatically
See the example below to see how a value can be added or changed programmatically. To update a value of a property editor you need the Content Service.
@using Umbraco.Cms.Core.Services
@inject IContentService ContentService
@{
// Create a variable for the GUID of the page you want to update
var guid = Guid.Parse("32e60db4-1283-4caa-9645-f2153f9888ef");
// Get the page using the GUID you've defined
var content = ContentService.GetById(guid); // ID of your page
// Create a variable for the desired value
var htmlValue = new HtmlString("Add some text <strong>here</strong>");
// Set the value of the property with alias 'richText'.
content.SetValue("richText", htmlValue);
// Save the change
ContentService.Save(content);
}
Although the use of a GUID is preferable, you can also use the numeric ID to get the page:
@{
// Get the page using it's id
var content = ContentService.GetById(1234);
}
If Models Builder is enabled you can get the alias of the desired property without using a magic string.
@using Umbraco.Cms.Core.PublishedCache
@inject IPublishedContentTypeCache PublishedContentTypeCache
@{
// Set the value of the property with alias 'richText'
content.SetValue(Home.GetModelPropertyType(PublishedContentTypeCache, x => x.RichText).Alias, htmlValue);
}
