TracyIsland Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi - Can this work in the IP Content articles section? I am interested from the standpoint of our members who I hope will be adding articles. We have a custom attachment field now created that is easy to follow but for those who want to add an image, how does the BBCode work in relation to the URL that shows in your images for this code? Is it a two step process? First add the image as an attachment, and then click on it to align it? Thanks, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenaki Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Can this work in the IP Content articles section? Oh boy I hope so What I don't understand and I am not knocking ips but I have seen this requested so many times since ipc was launched and it is still not taken into account in this latest version so I really hope Marcher has cracked it.....mind you I would be suprised if he hasn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TracyIsland Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Wow, that would be so perfect! Our more sophisticated users will understand about using the BBCodes icons since it is so much like MS Word, but with our attachments, they wouldn't know where to go from there.

Marcher Technologies Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 im about to do an update, for sheer simplicity and ease of use... this gets pushed into 2 bbcodes... sec.... you are gonna wanna delete the present in honesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcher Technologies Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 which has been done, if you have used said bbcode previous you may instead hide the button by blanking the icon field on said previous bbcode, but i feel safer knowing an option is no longer in the div's class :P as well as not being limited to url images.

Marcher Technologies Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 How solve this? Tnx place some space after the text... its meant for floating text around other objects.... not really meant for use on small posts.... i looked at adding a <br class='clear' /> but twould break the entire float text around an item functionality. as a note.... using one of these is suffice to wrap text around another object... should never need nor use 2 to attempt to align 2 items left and right, one does that.

Joel R Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hi Marcher, Can you confirm that this works with IP.Board 3.3.x? Thank you in advance, Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Hi Marcher, Can you confirm that this works with IP.Board 3.3.x? Thank you in advance, Joel I really don't see how they wouldn't. Tis very simple replacement html. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel R Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Okay, thanks for the confirmation. May I suggest you update the IP.Marketplace listing to make it compatible with 3.3.x? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheddy Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 The only glitch is that with 3.3.4, I noticed that when yoou have the image on the left side and align to the right side of the image, there is a massive spacial gap. Tried to install it and while it works, there seems to be some hiccups with it. I don't know if it's just with my installation of it or maybe if it's the skin customizations I use that's interfering with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a simple float to be honest, text-align factual would be rather bad for lists and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheddy Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 So, you're just wrapping the image around the bbcode and then typing the text on the outside of the bbcode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcher Technologies Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 So, you're just wrapping the bbcode around the image and then typing the text on the outside of the bbcode? Yes. Minor correction, though you should type the text first if you want to use the right. :smile: See the bbcode examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheddy Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Thanks, Marcher. I figured it out. I was wrapping the text inside the bbcode and placing the image on the outside. Didn't think to place the image inside the bbcode. :lol: Thanks for the explanation of how it works. Been waiting for something like this, makes two great plugins you've made that have been very useful on my site, the first one was that premium ips.layout template plugin. Thanks. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crmarks Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I was successfully using this BBCode in my articles section, but I realized it wasn't necessarily an intuitive feature to have available for my members to use, because it does not visually preview the functionality in CKEditor, which might be confusing to the end user. In my BBCode settings, I set 'Which groups can use this BBCode?' to Administrators, and now it does not get parsed when using it in IPContent articles, the [alignright] tags just appear as regular text. Is there any way around this? I've also tried different settings for 'Where can the BBCode be used?' and 'BBCode Application' but the result is still the same. It seems the new align BBCode tags are only parsed if I allow all users access to it. Any ideas when might cause this? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, at some future point, IPB will provide javascript callbacks to allow me to do this. sounds like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in 4.0? That bug report does sound like my issue, the strange thing is, I'm running 2.3.4 already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be perfectly honest, that is well beyond the control of this bbcode, or any single bbcode really. All bbcodes would behave in the same way, and you likely should submit a ticket to have it looked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
