User blog:Drkdragonz66/New Wikia Editor

Well then, since Hunter decided to just turn on the new Wikia editor layout without any explanation, here's a blog describing it. The main blog can be found here, where Sarah Manley explains the new Wikia Editor in depth and her hopes for the future.

What has changed
We've reworked the layout and design of the editor from the ground up, so there are many changes across the board, including improvements to both the visual and source mode editing. The main changes you will see are:
 * The media features have been moved from the top toolbar to the right rail. Note: Unless you are on the main page, which has no right rail.
 * The feature list is expandable &mdash; you can see more or less depending on your needs.
 * We now have only one scrollbar on the page in the edit window.
 * Messages (such as warnings, notices, license text, etc.) have been updated and moved to more obvious and consistent locations. Note: We are still working on some tweaks to these.
 * We have removed the 'unlink' toolbar button — you can still undo a link by using the right-click context menu.

What hasn't changed

 * The functionality of the editor itself has not changed.
 * Source mode still works the same (but uses the new design), and the preference to disable visual mode is still respected.
 * You can still switch to widescreen mode in source mode.
 * If your wiki uses preloads, they will not be impacted.
 * This update does not affect Monobook users.
