proposed change for selectable bbcode/html editor

Hi,

made some adjustments in cjblog to better fit our needs. Would really like to see some of these adjustments to be part of the distributed package: this extends the functionality of the component and saves me the redoing (and retesting) of the changes manually every time I update cjblog / cjlib :woohoo:

use case:
Currently cjblog uses bbcode editor for the about text, my bloggers (50+) are wondering why the default editor is not used (the same they use for creating their blogs). CJBlog has this functionality but a few changes are needed to make the html editor the default editor for the About Me text..

proposed change:
Make the used editor configurable so the administrator can in the back-end select between the bbcode of html editor for the About Me text.

Changes:
based on cjblog version 1.2.2, cjlib version 2.0.20

in file .components/com_cjblog/views/profile/tmpl/default.php
add:
$params = JComponentHelper::getParams(CJBLOG);
$editor = $params->get('about_editor', 'wysiwygbb');

replace

<p class="user-about">
<?php echo CJFunctions::parse_html($this->profile, false, true);?>
</p>

with

<p class="user-about">
<?php if($editor == "wysiwygbb") {
echo CJFunctions::parse_html($this->profile, false, true);
} else {
echo CJFunctions::parse_html($this->profile, false, false, false);
}?>
</p>

replace

<?php echo CJFunctions::load_editor('wysiwygbb', 'user-about', 'user-about', $this->profile, '10', '40', '100%', '250px', 'form-control', 'width: 100%;', true); ?>

with

<?php echo CJFunctions::load_editor($editor, 'user-about', 'user-about', $this->profile, '10', '40', '100%', '250px', 'form-control', 'width: 100%;', true); ?>


in file ./administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_cjblog.ini
add
COM_CJBLOG_ABOUT_EDITOR="About text Editor"
COM_CJBLOG_ABOUT_EDITOR_DESC="Select the Editor to be used to edit the about text. Default = BBcode editor. 'User profile selected (HTML)' is the editor the user has selected in his/her Joomla user details."
COM_CJBLOG_WYSIWYGBB="BBcode editor (Default)"
COM_CJBLOG_WYSIWYG="User profile selected (HTML)"


in file./administrator/components/com_cjblog/config.xml
after > field display_messages add

<field name="about_editor" type="radio" class="btn-group" label="COM_CJBLOG_ABOUT_EDITOR" description="COM_CJBLOG_ABOUT_EDITOR_DESC" default="wysiwygbb">
<option value="wysiwygbb">COM_CJBLOG_WYSIWYGBB</option>
<option value="wysiwyg">COM_CJBLOG_WYSIWYG</option>
</field>

in file ./components/com_cjblog/views/users/tmpl/default.php
add
$params = JComponentHelper::getParams(CJBLOG);
$editor = $params->get('about_editor', 'wysiwygbb');

replace

<div class="muted padbottom-5">
<?php echo CJFunctions::substrws(CJFunctions::parse_html($user, false, true));?>
</div>

with

<div class="muted padbottom-5">
<?php if($editor == "wysiwygbb") {
echo CJFunctions::substrws(CJFunctions::parse_html($user, false, true));
} else {
echo CJFunctions::substrws(CJFunctions::parse_html($user, false, false, false));
}?>
</div>

in file ./media/com_cjblog/js/cjblog.min.js
replace

$('.btn-save-about').click(function()

with

$('.btn-save-about').click(function()
if(typeof tinymce != 'undefined'){
tinymce.triggerSave(); /* omit parameters true, true because of jce save fix */
}
