Introducing SMF 2.0

Just as a note the wysiwyg editor doesn't replace the current editor.

Oh, I figured as much but I'm a firm believer in the bloatware concept that if it's there, someone will turn it on

This a great news.  Thanks for all your hard work team.

Will extensive stress testing be done to see what sort of resource impact that will have for forums with a lot of activity or will it be strictly client-side in terms of processing?

I believe it is completely client-side.

I believe it is completely client-side.

If so, then you'll have no complaints from me.

I can't wait for this to come out.  The screenshot's look awesome too.

WOW that is all I can say.

You guys are fantastic. A lot of the new features that have been mentioned so far are what I have been looking for in a forum software.

I am always saying to friends that if anyone ever took all the best features from all the forum softwares available and incorporated them all into 1 simple to use and customize version it would be the only one needed and it looks like the SMF team are on their way to doing just that.

Great Job guys.

Is there also plans in the future versions to address server resource issues?

I have found SMF to use a fair amount of resources compared to VB and IPB and it would be great if SMF could excel in this area as well and be not so resource dependent which will make hosting for an SMF site much smoother and problem free for large boards.

Yellowrose, This isn't the area to talk about this but if you provide ways to prove this claim it would be great. Any solutions you may have or code tweaks that could speed up SMF would also greatly help.
The team does look at stuff like this as it is good to provide fast clean software to the end user.
Please do this on a board like our general feedback forum or similar and not in this topic where it may get lost.

Really looking forward for the 2.0 release! I might subscribe as Chartered member for that as well!

Can I ask if the following features are in the SMF 2.0?

1. Ads management
2. Paid subscriptions
3. In-line attachment

On initial thought I'm actually against a wysiwyg editor.

I think it's only client side.
However, as far as I know (I haven't really seen the WYSIWYG editor yet ), the WYSIWYG editor uses HTML itself, but converts the post back to BBCode to insert it into the database (so posts made by the WYSIWYG editor can be edited with the normal editor, and vice versa). I'm not sure whether the HTML to BBcode conversion is done on the client or the server, though.

I would hope that the admin role could block it from being activated.

Thanks SMF!!!  How did I miss the Charter group?  Was that a pay type thing?

The WYSIWYG editor is now available for those who want to play with it. It can be enabled from the Look and Layout page in your profile. Let us know what you think

edit: wow i'm 2 posts behind... that was quick, lol

Looking great, keep up the great work

The background would be better if it was white.

• Superscript and subscript don't work.
• Neither does teletyper.

Table, code, quote don't work either.

Some indicator of which tags are currently on would be good. And the indents should match the indents in the preview.

You can't turn off a tag without selecting text

Or rather, you get the messed up code above:

Code Select Expand

It would be good to have it in quick reply and inline edit too

Wow.... NICE JOB!

Can't wait to download it :3.
