Change Composer to Redactor
-
haha don't get your hopes up yet, we still need to see if it's feasible or not. Fortunately @Drew-Llewellyn has a 30 day guarantee so if we can't figure it out no harm done.
That said, I really love it so it'll be great to have it implemented here
-
looking great hopefully it will be on the core, this is so much better specially for the average users
-
We have tons of work to go including finding a way to get all of the existing composer plugins to be compatible (ex. Embed plugins) and making sure this works on mobile. It's a start, but we're confident
Thanks to @Drew-Llewellyn, this will be available for anybody using nodebb without having to purchase a licence
-
Make it bundled but disabled in the next release? Tell everyone here about it. Some will chose to use it. With a good field test and bugs ironed out during 0.7.1 it'll be ready for default by next release, protecting novice users during this first one.

I think the only question is compatibility between composer plugins. If it's an easy switch without losing functionality then why not?
I've also been looking at https://iframely.com/ (resurrected on a different thread earlier), if done right this could basically deprecate all other embed style plugins
-
Yeah, I definitely think an all-in-one embed plugin would be ideal. Many of our embed plugins add content in different ways: inline, box at the bottom, etc.
It would be good to get one standard format that all embed plugins adhere to, or supercede completely
-
Does it need to be in the composer?
Could you create a framework / API of sorts where any embed plugin gets called after the post is saved? I am not sure how the plugin API works right now, but if something was called with an array of links - it could then parse them and embed them in a flexible manner.
I am personally keen on the embed.ly API (not the JS solution) as it gives some amount of flexibility on what can be embeded - I like that they return entities and taxonomy which can lead to richer tagging.
