Editing the XML configuration file

About this task

The XML configuration file, config.xml, is used to adjust settings once the editor is loaded. The config.xml file can be found as follows:
  • On the Windows operating system, you can find config.xml in C:\IBM\Connections\data\shared\\customization\javascript\ephox\ephoxeditors\connections\config.xml
  • On AIX or Linux operating system, you can find config.xml in /opt/ibm/Connections/data/shared/customization/javascript/ephox/ephoxeditors/connections/config.xml
Consider making a backup copy of config.xml, before editing it.
Note: The toolbar contains a placeholder item for IBM Connections-specific toolbar buttons. These buttons as a group are represented by the entry <toolbarButton name="connectionsDialogs" /> in the configuration file. This setting can be used as previously described to configure the position of these items within the toolbar.
