An Ark Editor plugin consists of an extension that interacts with the editor. These plugins or extensions are used to enable the user to quickly and simply customise or expand the functionality of the editor. This could be done to meet your needs, to portfolio images in a stylish gallery light-box or to expand the editor with media or image editing extensions. The possibilities are endless!
What's so great about it is that it works similar to Joomla’s stock installer so it’s very easy to install and you don’t have to be a developer to get started!
Navigate to Joomla's 'Extension Manager'. You can do this by going to 'Extensions' and clicking on 'Extension Manager'.
Under 'Upload Package File' click on 'Browse...', select the file and click on 'Upload File & Install'.
The system will now automatically install the Ark Editor package for you. Once completed it will inform you that the application has been successfully installed.
