[RFC] AJAX Quick Edit

[_hsr]

editing posts require BBCodes, but this is negotiable once a RTE is added to phpbb

[AliasM2K]

A few things that need to be decided:

• Should the edit button in the mcp also have a quick edit function?
• How about the PM area?
• Include BBCodes or not?

I'd say don't add BBCodes especially since the quick reply doesn't have bbcodes either.

Here is my opinion

• MCP may include quick edit.
• In PM area, drafts may be quick edited
• Include bbCodes, as it would provide easier formatting

P.S I'd suggest to enable bbcodes in quick reply too.

Yes for ajax editing with bbcodes although there may be issues with layouts

Resurrecting this, as its something phpBB should have.

Marc, it looks like you had something in place already (all the hard works is done)... just needs implementing.

The quick edit, I think, should be similar to the quick edit in the mods database topics on phpBB.com. The quick edit is inline, not a pop up, but there are also BBCodes and of course an "Advanced Edit" (or full editor, whatever works)

I have created a ticket for this: https://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3-12393

edit: I have also created a WIP PR for this:

Awesome!!!

I think, as discussed earlier in this thread, the existing Edit button should open up the quick edit, and like quick reply, there would be a Full editor button available should a user want to switch to that.

[Marc]

The current WIP quickedit does behave that way.
Clicking on the edit button a second time actually opens up the full editor, too.
This is triggered by jQuery code that is returned with the AJAX request so an accidental double-click shouldn't cause one to accidentally go to the full editor.

perfect... It'll be great to see your Quick edit...turned AJAX Quick Edit...evolve into a part of phpBB for reals!

it will be nice to be ajax in submit-buttons as well, nice work Marc.
