[RELEASE vB2.02beta] vB Code Buttons

It would be cool if this hack will be included in vb2.0 final version

I really like the idea of the open/closing tags system - I'll look into a way to include that as an option for a future version.

Lists will definitely be included soon.

The font tag is a custom vb code, you have to add it manually

The hack worked fine, but not on editpost, I double checked the template and it's included, but it won't show the buttons.

Saw another board with this hack installed and same thing happened, nothing on editpost

In editpost.php there are two lines of $templatesused... however, the top one is commented out with a double slash, so altering that one will make no difference to the page's code.

You need to add the additional template requirement to the ~second~ line on editpost.php, and it will work just fine.

Awesome mod! Just implemented into our boards, works perfectly except for the font type.....

It ends up just posting the actual VB code for the font face, do you know why that would be?

Also, I like the modification they did over at sitepointforums.com with this hack, making all the buttons images and adding a few more features.....is it possible to add the ability in the future (or now)? If so, how would I go about doing that?

SystemLogic:

A) You need to add the FONT command to your custom vB codes via your administrator.

Pretty simple, follow the examples, or:
minus the brackets since I always forget how to put them in: course they should be > and < but that never seems to work for me: font="\5" then close it then \7 then close your font. Shoudl work ilke a charm.

Bumbedoo.

B) You can either make them a popup/ref to the javascript link, shouldnt' take too much -- or you can (I think) make buttons into an image but I forget the syntax, oh well

Works great now, I feel stupid that I didn't see the comment

Thanks for the fast reply and again congrats on a great hack!

I'm having trouble adding a font replacement.....can somebody post a step by step detailed way of how to do this so that my boards can accept things like font size, center, and font face?

Oh wait nevermind, I kept looking at the wrong thing, lol, my bad.
