wp_editor( string $content, string $editor_id, array $settings = array() )

Since
3.3.0
Source
wp-includes/general-template.php:4197
Renders an editor.

Description

Using this function is the proper way to output all needed components for both TinyMCE and Quicktags._WP_Editors should not be used directly. See <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/17144">https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/17144</a>. NOTE: Once initialized the TinyMCE editor cannot be safely moved in the DOM. For that reason running wp_editor() inside of a meta box is not a good idea unless only Quicktags is used.On the post edit screen several actions can be used to include additional editors containing TinyMCE: 'edit_page_form', 'edit_form_advanced' and 'dbx_post_sidebar'.See <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/19173">https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/19173</a> for more information.

$contentstring
Initial content for the editor.
$editor_idstring
HTML ID attribute value for the textarea and TinyMCE. Should not contain square brackets.
