Title: FUNDRAISER: WYSIWYG text editor!
Post by: SWSF Hoppus on August 07, 2018, 01:28:50 PM: Hey Guys

There is a plugin available for $25 that will convert our current post editor into a What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) editor... basically, liek a word doc. If you bold something you see it bold, not the bbcode.

Here is the plugin:

I hope it makes it easier to use colors and be yourself and all that...

Seems Useful to me.

Posts written with the new editor, automatically load up styled in the editor.

I believe that Med and Syren will be happy as well, coloring dialogue is much less of a pain in the ass now.

Post by: Syren on August 12, 2018, 05:45:10 PM: Sooo, if you paste in from Word (which I do because I often write stoned as shit, sometimes over several days) the formatting and spacing do not transfer with the text and my last post is a subsequent mess. I tried to amend it within the editor but in preview and posting it looks nothing like it should. Any suggestions?

Post by: SWSF Hoppus on August 13, 2018, 07:43:29 AM: Ctrl-shit-v (paste without formatting)
Cmd-shit-v (macos)

Should fix that for you syren.

If you want the old style editing, click the the last icon (the piece of paper, to the right of the four arrows). That is the normal "code" view.
