 [webkiev](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webkiev/) September 3, 2016

But afrer a long time edittion of style.css the iThoughts ACE was cleared edited
css file. Maybe, this version doesn’t support last v.4.6.

### 󠀁[Best option](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-option-4/)󠁿

 [Ariel](https://profiles.wordpress.org/arielpontes/) September 3, 2016

I didn’t check all other options but I did check a few and this was the best and
most modern one. The rating is not so good but it’s probably underrated just because
it’s new. I recommend trying it out!

I installed the editor and it does what is promised except the shortcode does not
work for me. Hade all my code on one line. Much more important I would like to see
this editor as a replacement for the “codeview” on the posts and pages views (HTML,
CSS). This option isn’t available up to now. Hope this will be added and the shortcode
fixed. Regards
