Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted August 25, 200618 yr I think there should be a way to install additional fonts into IPB for making posts without manually editing the code. I know there's already a big list built in, but it would be a nice feature. :)
August 25, 200618 yr I think there should be a way to install additional fonts into IPB for making posts without manually editing the code. I know there's already a big list built in, but it would be a nice feature. :)Would be hard to add this feature, how would the code know what to display, if its not a array thats a specfic size. There has to be a "default" for people who don't want to add fonts to their board.I am not familar with how PHP handles arrays, to my knowlege you have to define the size of an array in PHP much like you have to do it in C. There are of course ways to "increase" the size of a specfic size array, but the code required to do this isn't simple.
August 25, 200618 yr bbcode editor?[fontname][/fontname]<span style="font:fontname">(I don't change fonts using CSS that much, but it's something like that...
August 26, 200618 yr I... don't see an edit...Also you can change all of the fonts on your forum by doing this in the css code:p{fontproperties here}span{fontproperties here}input{fontproperties here}td{fontproperties here}That should cover it (just a guess)
August 26, 200618 yr I agree, +1 for this idea, a font manager with the ability to add/delete fonts freely would be awesome.
August 26, 200618 yr I agree too. Being able to add fonts would be superb (perhaps ips could add more as default anyway).+1
August 26, 200618 yr Oh you mean fonts in the font pulldown, not the forum layout >< oops my bad.Anyway, I think they just limit it to the standard fonts on the web that all OSes have.
August 26, 200618 yr Remember though that users cannot see fonts unless they're installed on the computer they're using.Therefore, I'd assume most of the widely supported fonts are already on the list.
August 27, 200618 yr No, unlike C a PHP array does not have to be defined. You can define it, but after you do you can still add to it. PHP is very flexible.
