XOOPS 2.7.3 RC-1 is here — and it brings a new editor.

The first release candidate for XOOPS 2.7.3 is out. Thirty-six changes since Beta 1, and three of them you will notice the day you install it.

A new editor, and one that finally looks the same everywhere
SCEditor joins the editor dropdown as a lightweight BBCode option. It ships bundled, so there is nothing extra to download.

It stays in source mode on purpose, and that is a feature rather than a limitation: a WYSIWYG round-trip is exactly how [siteurl], [d], named [size=] values and custom smilie codes quietly get rewritten or dropped. SCEditor inserts at the caret and leaves the rest of your post alone.

While we were in there, we fixed something long-standing: the same editor now shows the same toolbar everywhere. Until now the control panel and the front end disagreed, and front-end themes disagreed with each other. The cause was five separate hand-written copies of the same markup. There is now one, and every renderer uses it.

Requirements: PHP 8.2+.
