Development Discussion Board

An extension can easily have access to the BBCode definitions in the database and it can easily change all phpBB pages. Unfortunately, the definition format used in the database is complicated to process without well-thought code. As most extension coders are not particularly good with programming i...

I don't get what you mean by that. What's pointless about this topic?

We already have that in the SCE extension. There's no need to have it in the core for something as limited as that.

I've never heard of a forum software that renders custom BBCodes in their rich text editor. Best to focus on core BBCodes and perhaps down the line allow to map some of the custom BBCodes to the equivalent editor's feature, such as highlighted spans, font style, etc...

That would be the idea...

I'll have to reduce functionality of that tag in the editor. I'll do a reaudit onto CKE and SCE once more. CKE changed a lot to bette...

I'm now having an internal discussion between CKE and SCE. If I go with SCE, I risk lack of support and bugfixes like it has been for too long and its single main developer has been having a too busy life. If I go with CKE, I'll have to make a couple plugins to make it decent for phpBB. As a praise ...

I advice any of you to find an algorithm to parse the quote tags in what they are unique and hardcoded in phpBB's source code. Once you find that, it should become ready for proper testing as it should have loads of errors I forgot during development.
