Comments: Is there a way to make the text area to include a WYSIWYG Editor like when posting an entry cause most people don't know about textile.

Images: How would i add an image to the public view of a skin? cause i would like to display the Valid RSS image at the bottom of my current skin but i dont know what to edit

Hi!

Since comments do not allow HTML, there is no way to use WYSWIYG editors since they rely on HTML. But textile and bbcode plugins do emit text that point users on how to use those boxes. Plus, a plugin that would show a B/I/U box like for entries would be easy to code. A very good try for someone who wants to try coding with Serendipity.

I don't understand - do you want to edit your Serendipity Template? You can edit the templates/XXX/index.tpl file for example. If you just want to add some HTML code to your sidebars, you can use the "HTML Nugget" sidebar plugin for that...

HTH,
Garvin

When you create a HTML Nugget plugin, you must set the "Apply Markup transformations" to "No"! Then your HTML you enter won't be touched.

Also, if you're using a WYSIWYG editor you must switch the editor into HTML Source view when you enter your code.

Best regards,
Garvin

Hi!

Please read what I wrote above about the usage of WYSIWG editors. Before you enter HTML code, you must click on the "<>" icon in the toolbar. And after that, do not switch back to HTML view and save the plugin config.

Best regards,
Garvin
