Release highlights
CKEditor 5 v47.7.0 is the first maintenance release in the CKEditor 5 Long-term Support (LTS) Edition line. The LTS Edition is a paid add-on to a CKEditor 5 license for teams that want to stay on one major version longer while continuing to receive security updates and selected compatibility fixes.
This release introduces license verification for the LTS Edition. If your license key does not include LTS access, the editor will fail to load. Aside from this license verification, no other changes were introduced in this release.
Which version should you use?
- If your license includes LTS access, upgrade to v47.7.0 and remain on the LTS line.
- If you want to stay on the standard release line, do not upgrade to v47.7.0 — stay on v47.6.2 or lower, or upgrade to v48.0.0 or later.
What is CKEditor 5 LTS Edition?
CKEditor 5 LTS Edition is designed for teams that prefer long-term stability over frequent upgrades. It lets you stay on a single major version for up to 3 years, while receiving security updates and compatibility fixes without breaking changes. Unlike the standard release line, which delivers several major releases each year, LTS focuses on stability and predictable maintenance rather than ongoing feature development.
