Joomla Extension Usage notes: Add WYSIWYG editor to SMF forum

Purpose: For Joomla 1.5.x with a good forum, the original thought to install a forum component, now want to or install an independent forum program, and then with Joomla bridge up. Third-party independent forum is basically better than JOOMLA forum components, and more vitality. Look at the Fireboard of the journey to know:

Joomlaboard (1.1)---> Fireboard (1.0.5RC)----> Branch one: F! BB (Frenzy Bulletin Board 1.5.96RC)

(has stopped developing) (Development stop, native does not support j1.5.x) |----> Branch two: Kunena Forum (1.5.5)

F! BB and Kunena Forum are all in the Fireboard Foundation development, the original support j1.5.x, two points, I am afraid it is not easy to say is to enrich the user's choice, but made a fork in the mouth, also revealed its life. And they are not used WYSIWYG (WYSIWYG) editor, even if there is an article like Joomla to meet, is now a variety of richeditor rampant when who would like to remember some of the bbcode.

and other open source independent PHP forums, such as phpBB3, SMF, MYBB, etc. have been ongoing in the development. The first feeling of the SMF some goodwill, but it can only use bbcode posts, even if the SMF2 has not been changed, so just think can give it to change a WYSIWYG editor, the final test results are feasible.

SWF (http://www.simplemachines.org/), the latest version is: 1.x is SMF 1.1.7;2.x is SM 2.0 RC 1.2. Because there is a module for SMF (OH) hoteditor v4.2 mod, from the official download of Hoteditor v4.2 MoD said to support SMF 1.1.4 (hoteditor v.4.2 mod for SMF 1.1.4:http://www.ecardmax.com/ehelpmax/download.php? STEP=DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC&DL_ID=30), but you can try other SMF versions, Hack Hack is OK.

Tried Hoteditor 1.1.7.rar is not available under SMF 1.1.10.

The software version used in this article is: 1. SMF 1.1.7 Chinese version (download address: HTTP://D.DOWNLOAD.CSDN.NET/DOWN/876856/KEYUNQ)

2. installation files that have been played as SMF modules (download address: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?) action=dlattach;topic=284316.0;attach=81729)

To install SMF1.1.7 This is not to say, assuming that the SMF installation directory is represented by $SMF _root. Let's say how to install the editor with Hoteditor 1.1.7.rar.

1 Extract hoteditor 1.1.7.rar, extract Richedito directory and hoteditor_quickedit.html file into the $SMF _root/directory

2 Extract the Hoteditor.4.2_smf.1.1.2.zip file in Hoteditor 1.1.7.rar and put it into a directory. Where the name is smf.1.1.2, first regardless of it.

3 then enter the background of the SMF management, into the plug-in program, in the downloaded plugin tag, browse the previous step of the Hoteditor.4.2_smf.1.1.2.zip, and then upload. After the upload is successful, on the displayed page, click on the plug-in module to use. Note that the links here may vary depending on your Chinese version of translation.
