Need some vB4 WYSIWYG testers soon, who wants to help?

[Lynne]

Wow, Dave, that's great!

I don't have a live vB4 site, but I am more than willing to try it out on one of my vB4 test sites. Let us know what version vB4 you want it tested on and what version PHP/MySQL etc.

Sounds like a project many will appreciate! :up:

I have access to vB 4.2.1-4.2.3 and will be willing to test on them.

Interesting.

If you find you need a hook somewhere it doesnt exist, do ask and I'll see what can be done.
I can still look at hook requests in 4.2.5, maybe even 4.2.4, while they are still not final releases.

i am willing to test this (and also give you access if you want it) to by dev environment

Have 4.2.4 RC 1 running on a couple of sites and also a test site so would love to test this out if possible,

[Dave]

Made quite some progress on this but it's not ready for testing yet, but shouldn't take much longer.
Glad to see a lot of people are willing to test this.

And the thumbnail of a larger photo that I uploaded, but didn't actually USE in the post?

Not sure about that, it's more of a BBCode issue than it being a problem with the WYSIWYG editor.
Since you don't really want people posting HTML code, you'd have to somehow implement BBCode that makes that kind of thing possible.

Just an update: a little bit busy this week but I definitely expect to have a test version ready around Christmas.

Excellent. I expect to have some time off around Christmas.

Hi Dave,

I just wondered if you had made any progress with this?

[Dave]

Yes, currently working on migrating the vBulletin plugins and making the WYSIWYG editor work with vBulletin's libraries.
