XF 1.3 Can the strike-through button be moved back to being a button on the main toolbar?

[CTXMedia]

After upgrading to XF 1.3 members are immediately complaining about the strike-through button being "hidden" - can it be put back as a single button in the toolbar (pre-1.3)?

Thanks,
Shaun

You would have to edit the core files or have an add-on developed.

Thanks. I don't suppose you know which core files need editing do you?

It seems Cédric's add-on cannot make the strike-through (delete) button independent either; so if it can be done by editing a file or two then I'd be interested to know how to do it (@Mike)?

Thanks,

Easiest way is to turn on uncompressed JavaScript in Admin CP > Options > Debug Options (requires debug mode to be enabled).



Then edit js/xenforo/full/bb_code_edit.js.

Find:

buttons.push(['bold', 'italic', 'underline']);

Replace:

buttons.push(['bold', 'italic', 'underline', 'deleted']);

That adds the button back in addition to the existing button in the dropdown.

It's possibly feasible with a small add-on too, but I haven't looked into it yet.

You could also create it as a Custom BB Code using a different tag name. But the button won't be near the original location and it may cause confusion having multiple tags doing a similar thing.

Ah, actually, don't turn on debug and don't edit the full file.

Instead edit js/xenforo/bb_code_edit.js.

Find:

c.push(["bold","italic","underline"])

Replace:

c.push(["bold","italic","underline","deleted"])

And this is all assuming that I have remembered correctly that the strike through used to be next to B I U...

Thanks @Chris D - I'll have a go at that later as I suspect that will satisy my members (it won't be an issue having it in the drop-down too).

Yup:

Perfect - works a treat. Thanks Chris.

Thanks for the tip, @Chris D, I think I'll be implementing this.

BTW I've added a suggestion to add back the strikethrough button - if anyone agrees, please like it.
