No need to load the admin backend just to correct a typo.\n\nIt makes the same [capability](http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities) checks, so that if a user isn't allowed to edit something in wp-admin, they aren't allowed to edit it in the front-end either.\n\nYou can edit posts, pages, custom post types, comments, widgets and many [more elements](http://github.com/scribu/wp-front-end-editor/wiki/List-of-editable-elements).\n\n**Goals:**\n\n* save as many trips to the backend as possible\n* compatible with any theme, out of the box\n* light and fast\n\n**Support and development:**\n\n[Support](http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/front-end-editor) is handled by the lovely [designsimply](http://wordpress.org/support/profile/designsimply).\n\nI am not developing the plugin anymore; only applying the patches that other people send via [Github](https://github.com/scribu/wp-front-end-editor/).\n\n**Credits:**\n\n* [Aloha Editor](http://aloha-editor.org) for the fantastic WYSIWYG editing component\n\nLinks: [**Documentation**](http://github.com/scribu/wp-front-end-editor/wiki) | [Plugin News](http://scribu.net/wordpress/front-end-editor) | [Author's Site](http://scribu.net)\n\n## Installation\n\nSee \u003chttp://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Installing_Plugins\u003e\n\n## Frequently Asked Questions\n\n### Error on activation: \"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected...\"\n\nMake sure your host is running PHP 5. The only foolproof way to do this is to add this line to wp-config.php (after the opening `\u003c?php` tag):\n\n`var_dump(PHP_VERSION);`\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n### I can't see the edit buttons\n\n1. Make sure you're logged in and have the appropriate capabilities.\n2. See [Common Mistakes in Themes](http://scribu.net/wordpress/front-end-editor/common-mistakes-in-themes.html).\n3. [Check for JavaScript errors](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors).\n\n### Can you change the wysiwyg editor to TinyMCE?\n\nNo, because TinyMCE is anything but tiny and would take a long time to load.\n\nAlso because I couldn't get it to work.\n\n### Does it work with WP Super Cache?\n\nTo avoid problems with WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache, I recommend disabling caching for logged-in users.\n\n## Screenshots\n\n1.
