Lack of interest Consider rendering more XF BB codes in rich text editor

[frm]

Right now, if I were to type

ABC

in the rich editor, then toggle BB code and then back to rich, the QUOTE would render pretty.



However, other built in BB codes that ship with XF don't natively do this.

echo $hello . ' world';

I would consider expanding to [CODE], [ICODE], etc...

Type [QUOTE]This is a quote[/QUOTE] in the rich text editor.

Then toggle BB code and then toggle it back to rich editor.

The quote will turn into a fancy quote in the rich editor.

Other native BB code such as [CODE], [ICODE], etc... do not do this. If I type [ICODE]This is inline code[ /ICODE] in the rich editor and toggle back/forth, it should render like the QUOTE tag does, as well as other built in BB codes other than QUOTE.

Ah thanks. I see what you mean now.

Haha. Personally I am having quite annoying experience with rendered quotes in post editor on 2.2 forcing me to use the bbcode editor a lot more than before. I am also seeing a lot more messed up quotes on my forum with sometimes post content also getting included in the quote box. I imagine my forum members are also struggling with it.

The problem was that the focus when quoting a post remained inside the quote.

That seems to have been fixed in the current version being used here.

Could be perhaps my QUOTE bug post or that people take a post and click the backspace button after a post, editing the quote if that's all that's left... I.e.:

(Inserted quote again and clicked backspace which enters the quote and backspace to delete some)

While rendering the QUOTE tag is not yet perfect, it could use some more core BB codes to render in the future.

Third party - QUOTE bug QUOTE escapes QUOTE

Say I type something generic first, insert a quote and then want to add substance to my post, like in the video below, "I agree. This would make for an excellent add on for any forum looking to expand into a more blog-like appearance and complete a CMS." I delete my generic line after inserting...
