[RE-RELEASE vB2.0] signature-editor with preview

This is just a re-release of a hack by AA. He made this hack for vB 1.x and I made some small changes to make it work with vb 2.x

It adds a signature-editor with preview ability to your vB.

It's very simple. You just have to create a new template (_editsignature) and copy sedit.php to your vB directory. Then add a link to sedit.php in the modifyprofile template. Done.

Install instructions are included.

Here goes. I never had been using my signature before. I added it to my profile earlier today. After I did that I installed your hack. Program came up loaded when I clickd on it but it did not show the signature that I had in my profile I even tried tp preview it, Everything worked fine except it would not show me the signature.

One question and it works great. This morning I tried something. I registered as a new user on my board. When setting up options for the new user your signature editor does not show up. Afterwards though when you sign into the board and look at your profile you can use the editor. So somehow I think it needs to be added to the register.php file.
any idea's

You need to put the link to the editor into the registeradult and registercoppa templates.

But the problem so far is that there is no user entry in the database where the signature can be stored. So the editor will not work in these templates.

The signature editor was intended to help building and viewing the signature. You want something like controlling the signature.
This needs far more hacking and should be integrated into the vB php files.

I would suggest controlling the signature exclusive via the editor. Delete the signature input fields from all templates and just offer the link to the editor. In the above mentioned register templates you can say that the signature is definable later in the user cp.
