Miscellaneous Hacks - Editor Toolbar Tooltips

Overview:

This simple mod allows you to provide more information in the mouseover tooltips of your editor toolbar buttons.



For each button you wish to give more information, enter a separate line in the provided setting containing the BBcode tag name (including the square brackets), a more descriptive name for the tag, and then any addition instructions you wish to include. These 3 data should be separated by the pipe symbol ("|").

Updates:

Version 1.1:

• Admin options processing optimized.
• Javascript function rewritten so onload function does not interfere with other onload events.
• Support added for quick editor.

Compatibility:

Tested and working on VB 4.2.x and should work on all 4.x versions of vBulletin.

Yes, I just reviewed that, and DBTech's editor buttons are dynamically created, which makes changing them much more difficult. Not much I can do about that.

Can you provide a screen shot?

oh that button too haha yeah, would be nice... i meant the other issue u helped on taz tho....the java issue or whatever it was blocking loading on adv editor....

regarding the second comment, i just mean a simple line break in middle of description.....for example, there is a line break between the "this is our blahblah bbcode" sentence and the other lines...just want to be able to slip a <br> in there or some kinda thing idk...if possible, no biggie

I have updated this product at the two sites in my signature.

If you could provide a screenshot of where you want a line break added, then I could easily tell exactly what you're asking.

[IggyP]

like in your shot for example...these three sentences all have breaks between them....well i guess literally i mean paragraph break rather than line break but yeah like this

[MarkFL]

Oh, okay...I was confused and thought we were talking about the product I updated earlier...LOL!

You and put \n in the description wherever you want a newline.

haha i have a hard time doing one thing at a time sorry for that :P

your suggestion works perfectly thank you
