Copy & Paste Question

[M³]

It use to be that we could copy and paste text from (x) site, and if there was ever a problem with the coding, we could first select the BBCode button, then paste .. and it would paste correctly.  However, whenever I try and take this path, it doesn't work.  It keeps the same appearance from said site.  Is this how it will be from now on, will there be a fix, or am I doing something wrong?  Thanks!

Hi,

Pasting into the BBCode editor should strip all formatting, and if for some reason some carries over, you should be able to view it in the BBCode plain text format. If this is not the case for you, could you link me to an example where this is occurring?

Michael Here ya go, post

Ahh, I see the problem.

One of your plugins appears to be actually breaking the BBCode editor. You can't actually get into BBCode without disabling the plugins on your forum, hence it not pasting correctly.

I would disable all the plugins on your forum, and then re-enable until you find the culprit.

Chris Works perfectly, with SoundCloud!!! Thank you so much!!! Regardless, if I have a need to re-arrange the icons, having more options is ALWAYS welcomed! Thanks again, E!

E, what version of soundcloud are you using because the last I heard it was causing errors switching between preview and bbcode, did Virgil fix it yet?

Chris Hey, E, it's 1.0.0.

Just to confirm, that IS, the problem.  The SoundCloud plugin.. now, what to do? >> hmmm... I love that plugin, too.

Edit:  Does anyone want to take a crack at this?  Only reason I ask is, it doesn't look like the creator of this plugin has signed in since, November?

Virgil Sovereign said he was going to fix it at the end of the month but I suspect like all of us he hasn't that much time on his hands so if you're up to it I can walk you through a fix provided the copy you have was exported as editable.

On the plugins build tab in admin panel edit the plugin and go to the Components tab then look for the following section of code in the Javascript component

code:

var fxHooks = {};
        $(['html2bbcode','html2bbcode2','bbcode2html','bbcode2html2','html2bbcode2html']).each( function( i_ ) {
            var s_ = this;
            fxHooks[s_] = o[s_];
            if( i_ < 2 )
                o[s_] = function( s__ ) { return fxHooks[s_].call( this, $V.SCloud.html2ubbc( s__ ) ); };
            else if( i_ < 4 )
                o[s_] = function( s__ ) { return $V.SCloud.ubbc2html( fxHooks[s_].call( this, s__ ) ); };
            else o[s_] = function( s__ ) {
                if( $V.SCloud.rxHTML.test( s__ ) )
                    return fxHooks[s_].call( this, $V.SCloud.html2ubbc( s__ ) );
                else return $V.SCloud.ubbc2html( fxHooks[s_].call( this, s__ ) );
            };
        });

and change it to

code:

var fxHooks = {};
        $(['html2bbcode','html2bbcode2','bbcode2html','bbcode2html2','html2bbcode2html']).each( function( i_ ) {
            var s_ = this;
            fxHooks[s_] = o[s_];
            if( i_ < 2 )
                o[s_] = function( s__ ) { return fxHooks[s_].apply( this, [$V.SCloud.html2ubbc( s__ )].concat(Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments,1)) ); };
            else if( i_ < 4 )
                o[s_] = function( s__ ) { return $V.SCloud.ubbc2html( fxHooks[s_].apply( this, [s__].concat(Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments,1)) ) ); };
            else o[s_] = function( s__ ) {
                if( $V.SCloud.rxHTML.test( s__ ) )
                    return fxHooks[s_].apply( this, [$V.SCloud.html2ubbc( s__ )].concat(Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments,1)) );
                else return $V.SCloud.ubbc2html( fxHooks[s_].apply( this, [s__ ].concat(Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments,1))) );
            };
        });
