I´m writing for the third time and this time I hope that there´s a kind person out there who can help me. My problem is that I want to get rid of the wysiwyg editor in, for an exampel, the phpbb forum. Is this possible and how do I do it?

Thanks
Richard

In my case, I can't answer your question because I'm not familiar with that module, or the other module you asked about in your previous posts. Even if I were familiar with the module, it could take hours of work to figure out the solution. And it's possible that the solution itself could take longer to implement.

I realize this doesn't help you, but it might explain why you haven't gotten any responses.

P.S. Rather than posting new topics, it's probably better to post replies to your initial topic. That would have the same effect of keeping the post current.

Richard:

Please also take into account that XOOPS includes, as of now, the newBB forum, and you're asking about phpBB, an external product. How about asking here? The community seems friendly and knowledgeable enough.

Good luck with your explorations.

Cheers.

Sorry for my mistakes, I know I sometimes can be a bit eager

But my question is a general question about the wysiwyg editor. Is it possible to deactivate it? In some modules the editor is not necessary (in my opinion) and only "takes place". For me it´s more important to have a clean and nice interface/design.

XOOPS doesn't come with a WYSIWYG editor by default. If you mean the XOOPS editor (all those buttons above the text field, and the smileys), then I agree. It should be configurable. We'll look into that, but I can't promise anything.

Richard:

You're correct about this, and having a WYSIWYG editor usually converts a thin module into an obese one. Take, for instance, Tiny Content. Without the editor, it's less than 100 kb. With the editor it grows to more than 1.5 Mb. I can tell you that in TC I disabled the WYSIWYG editor because also want a lean interface.

Another thing I do sometimes is to hack the XOOPS files so that instead of using the form structure that lets you include smilies, images and such, I use the simpler one. How? Well, instead of using XoopsFormDhtmlTextArea I use XoopsFormTextArea.

Cheers.
