RE: [Slashcode-development] Forced post previewing?

[Howell, M. <ho...@ra...>]

Here's how you would alter the behavior for your site:
(re-sending to include slashcode list)

1. Create a var called 'require_comment_preview' and give it a value of '1'

2. Edit template default;comments;edit_comments

  Change the lines that says:

  <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="op" VALUE="Submit">
  <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="op" VALUE="Preview">

  To say:

  [% IF !constants.require_comment_preview || form.op = "Preview" %]
  <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="op" VALUE="Submit">
  [% END %]
  <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="op" VALUE="Preview">

After those two mods, you'll be able to just change the
require_comment_preview var to '0' to disable this new feature.

I'm just shooting from the hip, here, and haven't actually looked at any
existing feature set.  The actual solution will depend on the version of
slashcode that you're using and any mods that you've already made.

Good luck,
-Mark

Subject: [Slashcode-development] Forced post previewing?


Hi.  I'm new to this list, but would like to suggest a very simple idea for
SLASH: forced post previewing.  All we need is a checkbox option added for
'forced post previewing'.  If this was checked, it would remove the 'Submit'
button from the initial post submit form, but leave it on the preview page.
Obviously, this would have the effect of requiring at least one preview
before posting, much like is required for submitting a story.  I think this
would be a very useful feature that I, amongst many other users, would like,
and it would improve the quality of many posts too.  Less typos!

BTW how many people are on this list?  I haven't received a *single* e-mail
yet!

Best regards,
Jez
