  • edited March 2008
    so User Info is really good? and how is (X)html better than html formatter? (is html formatter and default formatter the same thing?) thanks for your time and all ^_^
  • the kses formatter is much more secure.

    you might have to do some MySQL magic to convert all of the current html formatted comments over to kses formatted comments before you get rid of the html formatter.
  • i got default formatter is that the same?
  • edited March 2008
    no, it changes what formatter is selected by default for new comments. It is not actually a formatter itself.
  • i have not changed the normal formatter the site came with will i still need to mess around with the mysql
  • edited March 2008
    no, only if you had the other html formatter installed, and wanted to remove it, and change all the comments that will be referencing the (now) nonexistent html formatter to reference the kses formatter instead.

    All the kses formatter does is adds another formatter to the "Format comments as ..." doo-dah at the bottom of the comment box that allows (x)html in your comments. It's more secure than the popular html formatter.
  • oh i see thank you ^_^
  • spelling: extensions
  • spelling cow?
  • Attention to detail my friend, no big deal here but will blow things up if you are coding!
  • if you're on a programming forum, it would be nice to have a spelling extension that's optimized for programmers. ( img and href are words, for an html programming forum)
  • oh i see that makes sense thanks for clearing that up
  • it is a beautiful discussion... thanks fysicsluvr for extension infos. It was a great help. God bless you!
  • Everyone who wants to contribute could just get the "installed bling" addon, and post a link to their bling page. It's a hell of a lot easier than copy / paste / copy / paste / copy /OuCh!HaNdCrAmP / pasTe / cOpy / PAstE / .......
