Using config file
Using initialization script

If you prefer to edit config.js of CKEditor, or your CKEditor is initialized in some non-editable part of your CMS, make these changes there:

CKEDITOR.editorConfig = function(config) {
    config.extraPlugins = "EasyPreviewUpload";
    config.skin = "n1theme";                   // N1ED's own theme for CKEditor
    config.allowedContent = true;              // keep the classes and attributes N1ED writes
    config.removePlugins = "iframe,magicline"; // N1ED has better support of this
    config.versionCheck = false;               // skip its upgrade notice of CKEditor itself

    // config.apiKey = "...";
    // Get your own key in the Dashboard: https://n1ed.com/dashboard
};

Some CMSs do not use config.js and let you edit only the CKEditor initialization script. Make these changes there:

CKEDITOR.replace("editorId", {
    extraPlugins: "EasyPreviewUpload",
    skin: "n1theme",                   // N1ED's own theme for CKEditor
    allowedContent: true,              // keep the classes and attributes N1ED writes
    removePlugins: "iframe,magicline", // N1ED has better support of this
    versionCheck: false,               // skip its upgrade notice of CKEditor itself

    // apiKey: "...",
    // Get your own key in the Dashboard: https://n1ed.com/dashboard
});
