|
|
Can we have a preview option in the Blog space please? It would be nice to get formatting and layout working before submitting the final upload.
This came to the fore today as I was trying to finalise an entry. I was designing the layout etc.. in the forum as there is a preview there, but when I copied/pasted into the Blog it came out different.. ? (That confused me) If there is a difference in the BBCode underlying then a preview in the Blog space would help this and allow me to create a little quicker..
Perhaps the other option is to have a Visible / Not visible option in the Blog, so that you can write, design etc to your hearts content and then once you have finished just mark the tick box and there it is for all to see.
Just an idea…
Thanks Devels |

| A preview feature would be really nice. How did it come out differently? Did you try changing the font color or something? Because when you try to make a new blog it says "BBcode enabled: [b],[i],[url],[img]" so I'm not sure if you can change the colors. |

Not colours or font. No...My problem related to inserting some images. In the forum display they showed up normally in the layout that I was after. However when I copy / pasted the exact same code into the Blog the layout/formatting of images didnt come out the same.
The first two pictures looked right and then everything after that just showed the url code. Same code different outcome...
EDITED:-
Devels: If you want a copy of the code that I refer to just PM me...

We now have a blog preview feature exactly as requested (and naturally, as always planned), thanks to Nigel aka "El Kabong".
It will show precisely "whatcha gonna get".
Try it out: http://www.thebroth.com/writeblog.html |
