WYSIWYG editor?

julian

@BDHarrington7 SO's markdown also contains other formatting options, like text alignment, that we don't do... at least, judging by your screenshot.

Those last two? that's just

Heading

and HR

julian

I'm pretty sure hr is in markdown

Test:

That's an hr ---

Yup, I meant add the button to the formatting toolbar.

I wanted to use this plugin but it seems to be missing icons from other plugins like the nodebb Poll plugin that allows you to add polls to your posts.

Thanks

@whitts Unfortunately, plugins currently have to add buttons to redactor separately, because they're fundamentally different. Composer-default parses plain text, while composer-redactor understands real html. You could have a button that plops down poll code into the editor, but that kind of breaks the magic of using a wysiwyg.

@Astralis-Lux and probably not even copy pasting embed code from YouTube and such. All I need is basic options (font size, color, bold and bullets).

YouTube embed code won't work on nodebb. You just paste the URL and it converts it automatically.

Bold and bullets is already in the kitchen sink.

Colours and font size are relatively pointless, I'll just make all my text massive and white. You'd have massive gaps that look messy.

Hi Guys,

we are studying to use nodebb as a solution to replace this area of our project (https://cursos.atencaobasica.org.br/comunidades).

We have around 50k users and most of them are not really familiar with editing inline and we would need some workaround the text editor.

@João-Ximenes , I think the main problem is to insert links, images, emoji, etc using the nodebb editor as it is. I think it would be nice to remain almost the same, regarding that when you click the link (or emoji, or image) button the system would open a modal where users can insert the link and link text (the image url and alt text; or upload image, etc).

Is there anyone who tried this? Or just changing to a WYSIWYG editor?

emojis are complicated. See:

wil the end user kepp the "asterisks"?
