I is too difficult to post anything the way you want it to appear without a nice editing script like tiny mce or others.

People dont have that much time now a days and if they are to share there ideas in your forum you need to make it easy for them to express it in their posts.

I request all smf people to please include a nice editor in the forum core. everyone knows its importance now.


The BBCode isnt working good too. like for example if i want to insert a list for example as below

apple
orange
banana
mango

It appears like this



* apple
orange
banana
mango
*

Kindred:
2.0  **HAS** a wysiwyg

This is the correct BBC format to add a list:


[list type=decimal]
[li]some item[/li]
[li]some item[/li]
[li]some item[/li]
[li]some item[/li]
[/list]

which  will render this:


* some item
* some item
* some item
* some itemand this are all the variables you can use within the list tag:

none|disc|circle|square|decimal|decimal-leading-zero|lower-roman|upper-roman|lower-alpha|upper-alpha|lower-greek|lower-latin|upper-latin|hebrew|armenian|georgian|cjk-ideographic|hiragana|katakana|hiragana-iroha|katakana-iroha

Exactly but the forum editor will do the job like this

--- Quote ---
[list]
[li]some item
some item
some item
some item[/li]
[li][/li]
[/list]
 



* some item
some item
some item
some item
*
--- End quote ---

That means you would have to manually edit them again so whats the benifit of this kind of editor. When i say editor i mean an editor like in gmail or yahoo.
