TinyMCE 8.0.2

These are the Tiny Cloud and TinyMCE Enterprise release notes. For information on the latest community version of TinyMCE, see the TinyMCE Changelog.

Overview

TinyMCE 8.0.2 was released for TinyMCE Enterprise and Tiny Cloud on Thursday, August 14th, 2025. These release notes provide an overview of the changes for TinyMCE 8.0.2, including:

In TinyMCE 8.0.1, the licensekeymanager plugin was missing from some available bundles. TinyMCE 8.0.2 corrects this by including the licensekeymanager plugin in all available bundles which resolves the Known issue from the previous release.

Accompanying Premium plugin changes

The following premium plugin updates were released alongside TinyMCE 8.0.2.

Suggested Edits

The TinyMCE 8.0.2 release includes an accompanying release of the Suggested Edits premium plugin.

Suggested Edits includes the following fixes.

HTML comments were not tracked correctly.

Previously, pagebreak separators defined as HTML comments (e.g., <!-- pagebreak -->) were not detected by the suggested edit system. This meant that insertions or deletions of these separators were not displayed as edits, making it difficult for reviewers to identify structural changes.

TinyMCE 8.0.2 now tracks pagebreak elements defined via HTML comments. When editors insert or delete <!-- pagebreak --> markers, these changes appear in the Review Edits view, ensuring reviewers have full visibility of all document structure modifications.

Elements with no visible height were not displaying in the Review Edits view.

Previously, elements with no visible height (<br>, <!-- pagebreak --> comments, and <hr> tags) were missing from the Review Edits preview. This caused operations related to these elements to appear as floating cards without corresponding visual content, making it difficult for reviewers to understand the context of changes.

TinyMCE 8.0.2 now renders visual representations of these elements in the preview:

  • <br> tags display as an Enter icon.

  • <!-- pagebreak --> comments render the same as in the editor.

  • <hr> tags show with change indicators for insertions or deletions.

This ensures reviewers can clearly identify what and where changes occurred, even for elements that have no visible height.

Accessibility Checker

The TinyMCE 8.0.2 release includes an accompanying release of the Accessibility Checker premium plugin.

Accessibility Checker includes the following fix.

Enforce alt string check on all image rules

Previously, users attempting to repair accessibility issues in the a11ychecker may not have consistently seen error messages when their input failed validation. This led to confusion, as users were not informed why their repair attempt was rejected. For example, submitting an image filename as alt text or entering excessively long or empty text—when not permitted—should have triggered specific validation messages, but these were not always shown.

TinyMCE 8.0.2 ensures all defined validation messages are now displayed reliably for all relevant rule violations across the a11ychecker repair workflow. Scenarios include:

  • Filename used as alt text when decorative images are not allowed.

    • Result: Now a filename error is shown in the repair dialog.

  • alt text exceeding maximum length.

    • Result: Now a length validation error is shown in the repair dialog.

  • Empty alt text when a description is required.

    • Result: Now a empty text error is shown in the repair dialog.
