Important Kunena Editor - HotKey needed

Only problem with that one is that it's not free and we cannot use it.

I think that is also free if you don't remove back link. There was already created integration for many other forums.




Any editor will be ok if you can upload, browse and easy insert pictures.

First user upload picture and than he can browse ONLY within his user directory. When he select picture than he can also set (picture link, text, border, picture size, text align). I use JoomlaFCK editor and that is all I need.

If Kunena won't have great editor many forums, that have lots of pictures will be hard to use Kunena.

Sorry, I didn't mean that free = no money. This software cannot be added to GPL licensed software because of it's license. You can use it together with Kunena, but we cannot distribute it together with Kunena -- unless they change their license.

We are already looking for good alternatives, but there are not so many good ones that are distributed under GPL, LGPL, BSD etc licenses. If you find any, let me know.

Hello,

The Editor is very nice but a basic feature is missing and badly needed.
The Hotkeys or Shortcut keys.

I mean -
^B for BOLD
^I for ITALIC
^U for UNDERLINE

Thats all. Not all the buttons needed.

Thank you.

Absolutely spot on!

How many times have I pressed ^B, ^I and ^U when I've been composing a message in Kunena (because I'm used to the shortcut/hotkeys in Microsoft Office or just about every other rich-text editor) and I've had to backtrack my steps! Unnnghhh! Why not make it a suggestion. I would vote for it ...

Which key do you mean with ^?
Just the shiftkey or the strg-key or both?

Here a new file:

Changes:

Strg + Shift + b = bold
Strg + Shift + u = underline
Strg + Shift + i = italic
Strg + Shift + c = code
Strg + Shift + q = quote

one bugfix for IE...

I assume the usual convention for ^X = CTRL + X

e.g. ^I = CTRL + I

I had to do some work to find where the STRG key is. I think it's an abbreviation of the German word "Steuerung" (which translates to "steering" in English):
.

The standard [US] english keyboard (which we use in Australia) looks like this:


CTRL is an abbreviation of the word "control" (which has nothing to do with anything).

OK - It tried it with Word 2003 and on my Computer I need CTRL+Shift+B for bold...

Also I have problems with Firefox and CTRL+B: Here it opens the bookmarks...

Perhaps SHIFT+CTRL+B (for Bold) and SHIFT+CTRL+I (for Italics) is standard for the German and other versions of Microsoft Word. (???)

For as long as I can remember, CTRL+B and CTRL+I perform those functions in all English versions of MS Office products.

With Internet Explorer, pressing CTRL+B performs a similar function to Firefox's bookmarks, called "Organize Favorites" (sic).

Thanks for the information.

I you want to change it, open components\com_kunena\lib\kunena.bbcode.js.php

go to line 30 and change
into

Just to be clear: That's line 30 of your modified .PHP file.

Thanks. I'll try to get around to testing this over the weekend.
