Presentation:
This product adds a new toolbar in the Editor with up to 13 new BB Codes. It gives your members a better opportunity to display their messages. Some of the BB Code might be familiar to you. I've used them for years and updated them to my needs. Some are home made BB Code. This product strength is its high simplicity to install and configure.

Quick tour of these incorporated BB Codes:

1. BIMG BB Code: Resize a big picture
2. BIMGX BB Code: Resize a big picture giving its width
   [Safety Default&Max Width System included]
3. IGAUCHE BB Code: Insert a picture in absolute position to the left of a text
4. IDROITE BB Code: Insert a picture in absolute position to the right of a text
5. IGAUCHEX BB Code: Insert a resized picture in absolute position to the left of a text (width in px)
   [SDMWS included]
6. IDROITEX BB Code: Insert a resized picture in absolute position to the right of a text (width in px)
   [SDMWS included]
7. ARTICLE BB Code: Display an article inside a message
8. ENCADRE BB Code:This BB Code insert a text box to the right of a message. Default width is 20% of window
9. ENCADREX BB Code: This BB Code insert a text box to the right of a message. You can change width giving a value in "%"
   [SDMWS included]
10. SPOILER BB Code: This [spoiler] code allows to hide a part of a text
11. Justify Text BB Code: Display justified text
12. LATEX BB Code: Latex typesetting system allows to display mathematical content or graphics (YOU HAVE TO INSTALL LATEX ON YOUR SERVER !)
13. FIELDSET BB Code: This BB Code inserts a [fieldset] with a custom title

Don't worry : even though these BB Codes are many, displaying them won't mess up your editor. Just have a look to the pictures.

How to install
Very hard ! Unzip, upload, import and configure the module options (in vB options).

How to update
Uninstall the product and re-install it again. Don't forget to configure the options if you've got styles with dark background.

How to use Text Box
Let's consider that you want to have a main text and a box text at his right. In order to display this, your members have to insert at first the Text Box, then the Main Text. Here is what the code looks like:

[ENCADRE]BLA BLA BLA[/ENCADRE]TEXTE

Things to know
All the BB Code installation is automatic. Their Editor buttons use javascript to display popups in order to help your members.

I do want to thank Viper007Bond for his hack "Embed XHTML valid YouTube and Google Video into your posts". Thanks to him I manage to understand how to make mine works. And, of course, I really want to thank this great young retired coder who is TheGeek for his module GARS. Thanks to his "New page" button I manage to use javascript.

Information
This hack belongs to vBulletin-fr and I. If you want to distribute it elsewhere, you have to ask permission. If you're an other French team board, don't ask. The answer will be "no".

I hope this hack will work immediately for you because I won't have get time to support it. Sorry for this.

Personal message : l'm leaving Paris after tomorrow to go in Taiwan for several months. I don't think I'll get a lot of time to support this hack. Good news, I don't think much support will be needed ^^ I'm quite proud of this 1.5(b) version. I know that some of you would like a TABLE BBcode to be integrated. You should ask the author of this hack to make an option to integrate it with mine. If he doesn't want, I will try to do it (making only a special optional button). But to be honest I've never tried TABLE BBcode, so I don't know how it works ^^

Thanks for your messages and your ideas even though I were and I will pretty busy

No you can't any more. The code has been rewritten to allow the "Safety Default&Max Width System". If you want to change bbcode, you have to modify the xml files ; it should be quite easy.

[Kolbi]

Okay thank you.
This is, because I have to translate them to German.
Phrases are translated but the BB-Code I want to modify, too.

[Kolbi]

What happens if I uninstall this addon?

Will the BB-Code removed of a thread or still be displayed as for example:
[ARTICLE]text...[/ARTICLE]
?

[cclaerhout]

Like any other bbcode, if you delete it in the admincp, the message will display [ARTICLE]text...[/ARTICLE]
