Don't get confused. You DO NOT NEED any MODX Extra to help you with basic frontend editing.
From

<!DOCTYPE html>

<script src="//cdn.tinymce.com/4/tinymce.min.js"></script>
<script>tinymce.init({ selector:'#myLoginTextarea' });</script>

<textarea>Easy (and free!) You should check out our premium features.</textarea>

Plug that into your login page
Use something like this to seriously limit user actions
tinymce.init({
selector: "#myLoginTextarea",
statusbar: false,
plugins: "imagetools,autoresize,preview,paste,contextmenu,image,wordcount,fullscreen,code,charmap,searchreplace,textpattern,emoticons,insertdatetime",
....ETC...ETC
})
If you want to take that user-own page to the next level of editing experience...
- Install Bob Ray's NewsPublisher
- Install
TinymceWrapper
TinymceWrapper comes with a complete frontend magic called
TinyMagicPublisher
Enjoy!
