Description
DD Editor Colors is a lightweight Classic Editor / TinyMCE plugin for adding background colors to selected text blocks.
It adds a single “Colors” dropdown to TinyMCE, supports applying and removing color classes, keeps legacy custom-style content visually compatible, and avoids unsafe DOM wrapping for complex selections.
This plugin does not add Gutenberg block editor controls.
