While we hope you never need or want to, if you ever decide to uninstall EditLive! and go back to using the default editor within IBM’s Web Content Management system (IWWCM), simply follow the steps below. If you’ve decided not to use EditLive! anymore we’d appreciate it if you could drop us a note to let us know why as it will help us to improve our products in the future.

1. In the IWWCM Authoring interface, click the Configure link.
2. Expand the Rich Text section. Remove the reference to EditLiveJavaEditor.jsp in the provided text field (so that it is blank). Click OK. The ODC Editor is now the default editor for new rich text fields.
3. Select your desired Authoring template. Once open, click the Edit button.
4. Click the Default Content Settings link. Notice that EditLive! will still appear for each registered rich text field in the Authoring template.
5. For each rich text field element open the properties of the rich text field.
6. Where the EditLiveJavaEditor.jsp file is referenced, remove the reference to EditLiveJavaEditor.jsp so that the text field is blank.
7. Save the Authoring template. Each content item which uses this Authoring template will represent Rich Text fields using the IBM editor.
8. Perform steps 3 to 8 for all the authoring templates where you no longer wish to use EditLive! for IWWCM.
