I installed this hack on 2.3.0 without a single problem.

However, I see you miss out on some functionality with this. Is it possible to add some of the missing functions such as inserting images, php code, quotes, etc.?

I also don't like that the submit new thread/preview new thread buttons display submit new post/preview new post even if you are creating a thread.

Thanks!

Oh.. and the install.txt tells you to create a folder called "toolbars" instead of the correct name of "toolbar". In addition, it makes no mention of placing the vbcode.js anywhere.

Yeah the directions should be edited... Had no problem figuring out the toolbar mis-naming but, did forget all about the vbcode.js when I upped it all and tested..

The minor template changes towards the end of install.txt should also be bundled with the initial template changes.

Wish this gif would be cut and remade for the new WYSIWYG panel. Anybody can do that for me?

bah... is this a dead issue?

Those are all just template modifications. If you want to add in or take away a button, just delete that portion of the code from the template.

Oh, I'm sure they are just template modifications. However if I knew how to code, I wouldn?t have asked. Could anyone tell me what code to add and where? I'm sure SOMEONE that installed this hack added the Image, Code, Quote, etc. buttons.

Any way of keeping a button depressed when being used?
