Quoting people on articles should work again.
Hamish Aug 5, 2013
Quoting: liamdaweThis one would be a text-only editor with no WYSIWYG editing.

Good. Slay the beast. ;)
Liam Dawe Aug 5, 2013
Yeah WYSIWYG editors by their very nature never work right across all browsers especially when browsers get updated. Luckily the SCEditor author has fixed the latest bug so for the moment it works okay but I will keep this new editor I have as backup to switch in, since SCEditor is a one man project he could drop it anytime :(

I have implemented on http://www.prxa.info ready for testing a new option for Editors.

You can now put an article in the editors queue for review by others, they can edit it and it will email you or if it's fine publish it and it will email you.

In the future it will have a "lock" option so only the author can approve it and get the last word (cheese's request). It will also have a very simple comments system below the article for quick notes to the editor so you can note your changes or whatever.

Notes:
If you test it out on yourself, remember the email links will be to gol not prxa (known issue obv).

Needs testing so we can get it up on here ASAP. Just need to know if it works okay for you, I tested and it seemed to work okay!

Mainly so you can all check my crap grammar before I keep making an arse of myself (I am dyslexic FYI).

Tried it on myself and it worked fine. I was able to edit my own article, publish it, and I received both email alerts: one about the edition and another about the publication. :)

Awesome I will probably push it to gol after I put in the simple comments system on it, would be using different sql tables than normal comments to make sure there are no crossover issues.
Liam Dawe Aug 10, 2013
Also guys any ideas on extra's to give GOL Supporters?
Hamish Aug 11, 2013
Little Liam statuettes? ;)

Editors can now rather than publishing an article have it sent to the review queue so other editors can edit it, comment on it etc all behind the scenes.

Should make bigger articles, grammar and spelling on editorials checking etc easy as pie.

When adding article/editing etc it will show the amount of characters entered for the tagline to make it A LOT easier to make it 100 characters.
