feature request: highlighting - Skaperen - Jan-25-2017 we already have bold, italics, underline, and strikethrough, for text. i'd like to add to that: highlighting, in at least 2 colors, or maybe a color menu version. these are common colors. maybe this can be done by integrating background color with text color. maybe there are objections like "i don't want color on pages i read". but this is not hard to do in HTML. RE: feature request: highlighting - metulburr - Jan-25-2017 we did just recently add inline code whihc is meant to highlight a specific word or words.
RE: feature request: highlighting - Kebap - Jan-25-2017 I would be wary to give users colors this easily. We already have lots of 1-posters who misuse the size of letters in hope of getting answers faster RE: feature request: highlighting - Ofnuts - Jan-25-2017 (Jan-25-2017, 08:56 AM)Kebap Wrote: I would be wary to give users colors this easily.

you haven't got the guy that centers everything. RE: feature request: highlighting - Kebap - Jan-25-2017 Hint: colors are already available there ;) RE: feature request: highlighting - metulburr - Jan-25-2017 you can already change the text color But that looks horrible and doesnt do anything other than make it harder to read. To be honest if someone posted a lot with text color change enough to make it hard to read, we would just remove the formatting with an edit.

We already have lots of 1-posters who misuse the size of letters in hope of getting answers faster what about requiring some kind of better status for the user to be able to use "higher" editing features like colors and size? like made 5 posts over the past 72 hours received 3 private messages over the past 336 hours and read them don't PM spammers (Jan-25-2017, 03:31 AM)metulburr Wrote: we did just recently add ah , so that's what that does.

Remove those buttons should be enough, or also ignore the bbcode? RE: feature request: highlighting - metulburr - Jan-26-2017 The BBcodes are a little more complex to adjust to usergroup permissions. There is an option to globally kill it. If you wanted to restrict the BBcodes to usergroups, it would involved core changes. It is also a pain in the ass to not show the BBcode buttons, as they are all laid out together at once in javascript. This is the same reason why the BBcode Help button is not with the BBcode buttons, because i couldnt get it there. Do we need that to begin with? Most new users text alteration is not due to them manually changing it, but because they copied it from the web, and the editor is retaining the text formatting. RE: feature request: highlighting - Kebap - Jan-26-2017 If it's too complicated, nah. I will review the next few users doing this, maybe it's just like you assume, and this wouldn't benefit anyway. |
