Template location request: "{vb:raw messagearea}"

[GateKeeper_]

I can't find the template anywhere, I've checked everywhere for it. :down:

I'm not sure what you're asking. Are you looking for the template that contains {vb:raw messagearea}? That appears in a number of templates, just use "Search in Templates" to find them.

Is there a way to edit the {vb:raw messagearea} I do not like how it looks like so I would like to add a custom design to it. And change the width, button images, and the background gradient it's using. I could not seem to find the template to edit {vb:raw messagearea}

Well, I think in older vb versions that used to correspond to the editor text area, but with the new editor I believe it's all created in javascript and {vb:raw messagearea} doesn't actually create it. I don't know much about how to change the editor look, but someone else might.

That sucks, because the current 4.1.X messagearea doesn't look so good. Doesn't blend in with designs and etc. I checked the "Editor" templates already.

Currently using 4.1.11. Anyone know how to edit {vb:raw messagearea}

So it's created with javascript? There is no template or way to change it without editing the javascript file? I believe "{vb:raw messagearea}" creates the textarea because when I erase that text from the "showthread" it deletes the quick reply textarea.

OK, messagearea does have some of the html in it - it's template editor_ckeditor. Maybe that does have something you can change. But it includes a {vb:raw ckeditor} which is created by a function in vb/ckeditor.php. I still believe that in the end the look of the editor is created by some javascript.

But there definitely is a way to configure the editor, I just don't know how to do it offhand.

Yeah, thanks anyways. I'll be waiting for more responses. I checked that template already.

I looked at it a little more - you might check out the editor.css template, that may be how it's done.

Yep thanks appreciate your help, I checked it. There is no way to change the border-radius or edit the button arrangement on there. I'm also trying to change the popup's on the buttons so that it would display easier. Hopefully someone has a good idea of how I can do this.

This is really frustrating. I can't seem to find it anywhere. Is it possible to create something out of javascript without any html involving as a template?
