When I test topics with the different Connections editors (CKEditor, Textbox.io and TinyMCE), I always used multiple users in my test environment, installed the editor selector ear and then gave each of the test users a different editor. That’s easy with the different j2ee roles, but I always had to use multiple browsers or sandboxes to see them next to each other.

Some time ago I got the tip from HCL Support, that the Create Community
button will recognize the role community-creator
only when the gatekeeper option CATALOG_CARD_UPDATED
is set to false
.
This is working, but I had to complain, that this option activates some code, which loads fonts from a CDN instead of the local Connections deployment.

Connections 7 creates the Community Highlights page automatically and sets it as the start page for new communities.
That’s configured in the highway service, which is available for administrative users on https://your_connections_url/connections/config/highway.main.gatekeeper.tiles

A long time ago, I wrote about the new implementation of allowlists in HCL Connections and that the documentation on customization and adding new rules was an absolute miracle for me.
