WordPress plugin Update

Filed under: general — Dav Glass @ 10:38 pm

A few people mentioned that the Editor was not working, it turns out that WordPress is a little strict on the HTML that is accepts..

So I have included an additional step in the instructions to fix this issue..

You can get the fix here.

You do not have to re-download the plugin, just make the change to your wp-config.php file and all should be good.

If you notice that there is an issue with content not being submitted, please drop me a note and let me know what failed..

Update: I did update the plugin for posts. When you switch from the Editor to the code view I put the default “Quick Tags” bar back across the top of the textarea.

YUI Rich Text Editor WordPress Plugin

Filed under: php, yui, ajax, javascript, code, Yahoo! — Dav Glass @ 6:30 pm

Today, the YUI team released version 2.3.0 of the library and it contains my Rich Text Editor. So I decided to build a plugin for WordPress that allows you to use that editor for blog posts as well as comments.

You can download the plugin here.

You can demo the plugin here: http://rte.davglass.com

The posting and comments feature of the plugin has also been activated, you can test the post editor by logging in with the username and password of: rte

Please be nice with the posts and the comments or I will have to turn off the demo.

I have the plugin installed on this site, so you should now see it in action when you make a comment :)

Enjoy

Note, I just found out that WordPress is filtering the content coming from the editor.. Let me get that patched. I’ll post an update when that is fixed..

Minor Site update

Filed under: yui, css, javascript, news, general — Dav Glass @ 10:39 am

I’ve been a bit busy lately and have neglected my site, so I have upgraded WordPress to the latest release.. Plus I have changed up come colors, changed the Twitter badge and added MyAvatar support to my comment pages..

Drop me a note if you see any funky after effects of the changes..
