How did you get Textile to work with PunBB?

FireFusion · 2005-08-20 15:19:00

Is there a plugin?

Edit: I’m trying to get Rickard (maker of PunBB) to replace BBcode with Textile. Anyone what to help argue my case?

as far as I know there is nothing out there. Might be wrong though

There’s a PunBB plug-in but doesn’t work well. For the TXP forums I guess Dean implemented Textile by himself. It would be nice if he’ll release his hack as a plug-in.

You are right. It is <a href=“http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=1586”>here</a>

This is just from glancing at the code, but I believe this is all it took.

at the top of /include/parse.php:

<code>include_once ‘./classTextile.php’;
$textile = new Textile();
</code>

Then the parse_message() function was changed to this:

<code>function parse_message($text)
{
global $textile;
return $textile->textileThis($text);
}</code>

of course you’ll need a copy of classTextile.php in the /include directory

Just to clarify:

Which part of punBB ‘working’ with TXP are we referring to here?

Also, forgive my ignorance, but what has the textile include got to do with this?

This forum gets marked up by Textile (as opposed to, say, BBCode).

Thanks Dean I’ll try that, it’ll be cool to have textile running properly with PunBB :-)

Textile is nice for those who know it (like txp users, or those who like it and use it with drupal or other cms that have a textile plugin), but most forumers use BBcode (and mostly the FF extensions to that effect :-)

Since there is already a textile plugin for PunBB (and you can use dean’s hack above to improve it), I don’t see why rickard should make the switch. Some will argue they’d rather have Markdown, and so on.

That said, I like texile best but then again, I am a txp junkie ;-p

I tried too :)

I think at least there should be a forum setting for choosing between Textile or BBCode (and Markdown?).

But I, also, am a txp junkie.
