Questions :P

I haven't done anything with this stuff in a looooong time And V5 is all new. Right now i am wondering if there is a way to check whether a person is staff on the post page? Or would that have to be done by adding staff names to the code?

Also how do you check what page you are on? Like right now i think you'd do something like if(pb_action="post") { I don't know how that works now

Found it

Ok new questions

I have this code:

$(document).ready(function() {
if(proboards.data('user').is_staff == '1') {
if(proboards.data('page').thread) {
$('li.button.button-insertImage').hide();
$('li.button.button-insertVideo').hide();
}
}
});

when i put it in the JS part of the plugin it doesn't work, but when i put it in the footer it does...why?

One other thing. I have been looking for hours for a way to inspect the contents of the posting box for something before it posts...

The visual editor controls are generated via Javascript. You are using the "ready" event, which is fired once the DOM is ready, that's why it works in the footer, and not above.

The "posting box" contains 2 things, a textarea, and an iframe. Depending on what you want to do, you may need to look at both of them.

The iframe is not obvious at first look, but this gives you an idea of how to get the contents of that.

$(".editor.visual-editor iframe").contents().find("body").html()

Like I said, there is a textarea as well to look at which is what is submitted.

Is there another way to get it to work in the other box?


Ok what I am trying to do is check to see if someone uses image or video tags in a post and then block the posting...
