(Only Topic!) New Editor

Is there a way to opt of this new editor? If not is there a way to at least set the smiley's back to the old way. They are hard to see even with the mouse over feature. Any member we have with poor eye sight will not be able to use them. I ware glasses and it's hard for me to make head nor tails on the smileys.

Thanks in advance for a quick reply.


Edit:
A few solutions for the problems.

Currently the editor has bugs related to posting via mobile operating systems. Will advise not to use them, until they are fixed. Regret the Inconvenience.

To add an image to the text editor, add this to your CSS:

Code:

 .sceditor-container iframe, .sceditor-container textarea {
          background-image:  url("IMAGE'S URL") !important;
          background-position:  center center !important;
          background-repeat:  no-repeat !important;
    }

At this time there is no way to opt out of the new editor, but addressing your concern of small smileys, this code worked on my forum:

Code:

img.smiley {
width: auto !important;
height: auto !important;
}

sorry to be dense, I am not pc literate.  What should I do with this code please?

Add it into your CSS: ACP >> Display >> Colors >> CSS

Thank you

Hi,

Have made this thread as a (Only Topic) for the new editor, anybody that has any issue regarding the new editor, please post it here and refrain from creating any other threads, thank you. Any other threads will be garbaged.

The new text editor does not appear on mobile devices. Since many of our users use their phones to access the forum (and have confirmed that this is the problem in quick reply and in full reply mode), could the old editor be added as a selectable option on the admin panel so that they would still have these options? They do use the desktop version (the classic view) and it's still not showing up. Really, the old editor was much more functional (and more user-friendly).

at least GIVE us the option to revert back to the old editor!

hey Godfather, if you're reading this please give us a break willya?

i've been on forumotion for 4 years and this is the only time i will complain about something you guys have done.

please, please, please! don't punish your loyal "customers" with damaging updates - give us a choice! thanks in advance!

I used this code but it's leaving a huge black space in the right side.



How to show emoticons in the right side like before? Thanks

I can't backspace certain parts of a line when clicking on it if I find an error in my post, it just automatically deletes the end of the line. In addition, there's no cursor line indicating where I'm typing.

Really shouyld have a choice between this editor and the old editor, this one is really messed up.

the smilie box wont show up. if you click on the smilie icon it will show the smilies as their normal sizes, instead of the resize images.

For those who don't have issues and just want to leave feedback, you can post it here:

Dear forumotion: can you PLEASE give us the option to go back to the old one???
Many bugs with this one, and my forum is usually quite busy.

also its a pain to resize the quoting box every time... is there a way to put it at a certain height and width?

I know, but I want to know if there is a way to put the smilies in the right side like before.

I agree with those that say why fix something that isn't broken! We are a five-year old forum wordnerds.omgforum.net and our members are used to the old editor, not to mention our forum is dark and this white thingy doesn't fit the aesthetics at all. If the mobile version doesn't work, it will also be a major problem for our users.

 There are many admins who are not familiar with html/css code, so asking them to use that to bypass the new editor is not fair and not a good policy from Forumotion, IMO. Please give forumotion's  forums the chance to choose which editor they want to use! Thanks!

ETA: The way the smilies are shown is really annoying as we do have bigger smilies than the regular ones.

I do not know. I don't think so

EDIT: I want it like this as well Forumotion!!!

please we're begging you to give us the old version back for now

Mr. Eddester, that has been suggested:

Thanks in advance for a quick reply.

you can not choose between the old and the new editor as they are incompatible. for smileys, we will try to improve the visual rendering

as i sayed, you can not choose between the old and the new editor as they are incompatible. FYI, the new editor as the old one is not intended for use on mobile devices whenever you have a mobile version of the forum...

as usual, if we could give you the choice, you would not even have to ask. if we choose to keep only the new editor that's because it's the only choice we can do.
since years the entire forumotions communitys demanded a new editor and now that you have it and it works better than the old one you want the old editor ... no comment

Godfather, my users use mobile devices in desktop view, so everything is exactly as on desktop except for the editor. They use the classical view, not the mobile view.

Is there a way to put the smilies in the right side of the reply buttom?
