Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted April 15, 2024Apr 15 Just wanted to add some feedback here. It'd be really nice if there was an option in the editor buttons to add a horizontal line in a post/article. Thanks!
April 15, 2024Apr 15 Its not something we are likely to add within version 4, as the editor itself is changing in version 5, and you can do this already in that version 😉
April 15, 2024Apr 15 Author Thank you to both of you!! Great news, @Marc Stridgen. We're definitely looking forward to v5. It was actually in hopes of it being included there that I left the feedback. Not a necessary feature, but certainly would be nice! @Nathan Explosion Thanks for that link! I hadn't thought to do that, but it's perfect. Appreciate it.
April 27, 2024Apr 27 Not everyone can have the ability to edit HTML except admins may be temporarily due to security reasons. HR should be a toolbar item. Also since pasted content is enforced as plain text (due to various color themes) losing formatting, TABLE/TR/TD toolbar items are needed too.

I guess the custom buttons are for specific purposes (Eg: Stock Replies) and it would be ideal to use built-in functionality instead of cooking our own. CK Editor has most of the buttons that can be provided in the ACP which can be exposed by admins. Edited April 27, 2024Apr 27 by WebCMS

Stock replies are completely separate feature. You can also install CKEditor plugins.
May 15, 2024May 15 Is it possible to add a custom button for <video> tag for mp4 files from a URL? All it needs is - <video autoplay data-video-embed="" loop muted playsinline preload="auto" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/videos/fraud-prevention-illustration/large_2x.mp4" style="width: 100%"> </video> It would need an input dialog to accept the src URL. How to implement the input dialog for the custom button? How to use {option} and {content} for src and URL? NOTE: autoplay works only when muted is used for optimal bandwidth usage. https://www.gumlet.com/learn/how-to-autoplay-html-video Edited May 15, 2024May 15 by WebCMS

May 17, 2024May 17 Anything is possible with the custom button tag. However, keep in mind that we do not provide support for custom buttons (and this is the Feedback forum 🙂 ). The {content} variable though would be what the user is highlighting in the editor. Whereas, the {option} variable would be a popup. If you are wanting to do this, you would likely just want to use {option} and replace the URL with {option} in the button HTML.
