Introducing Editor v2: Enhance your Message Editing & Posting experience

[alan@ebay]

Editor v2 takes a big step forward in providing community users with a modern message editing experience. Read on to learn about all the message editor improvements.

Drag and drop images, videos, and attachments

With Editor v2, you can drag and drop images, videos, and file attachments directly to the message editing pane or as attachments to the post. 

 

 

In-line image editing

To reposition, re-size (small, medium, large) and insert a hyperlink for an image, you need only click on the image and choose the appropriate option inline.

 

Improved emoji support

Emojis are a powerful medium for expressing one’s thoughts and emotions. An emoji such as “👍” can be used to replace the text - “All the Best!” or “Best of Luck!” or “Well Done!”.

Editor v2 brings you the Unicode standard set of 2500+ emojis divided across 8 categories. Emojis are supported across both Apple and Windows devices.

 

Inline link editing

When you click on a link or use the arrow keys to move the cursor over a link in your post, the inline link pop-up menu displays:

From the inline link pop-up menu, you can click:

• Edit Link: Opens the link editing window where you can change the existing link.
• Unlink: Removes the link associated with this text.
• Bare URL: Displays the actual URL of the link instead of the website title. (If the Bare URL is active, this button is disabled and greyed out.)
• Auto Title: Displays the title of the linked webpage for the link text. (If the Auto Title is active, this button is disabled and greyed out.)
• Open Link: Opens the linked URL in a new browser tab.

 

Toolbar button optimization and consistency

We made several improvements to the message editing toolbar to optimize it and make it more consistent:

Toolbars across all discussion styles are now consistent and have the same controls. Moreover, the toolbars include many more options that cater to all messaging scenarios.

We hope you enjoy using these new features!

I posted on another thread that they look like counterfeit emojis. 😂

Been a really long time since I have taken HTML classes.  Plus a lot has changed.  With some tinkering  looks like it has something to do with the "class" attribute.  I guess there shouldn't be any spaces in the stuff between the quotes based on something I found on a quick google search?  This is the part that is causing an issue:

class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji"

Don't know how to fix it since I don't fully understand what it does xD

COPY works if you notice  the red banner before clicking on Post 🙂

Sometimes I am too far down the page typing, or because I am old, I forget that the banner popped up as I continue on with my train of thought with 2-3 more paragraphs.

[buyselljack2016]

I looked.

Too old to figure it out.  I do not see the "quote".

Has to be there as evidenced by a couple of posts in this thread being "quoted".

Some things only appear if I sign out - or the current glitch boots me off.

If I'm signed in I cannot see avatars nor most copy / paste / screen shots.

Thanks. I guess that works, but not really.  Is not showing like other "quoted posts.

Looks like back to the old "copy and paste" for me.

Oh, and Alan, I've tried 2 or 3 times using the new emojis but they don't appear on my posts.  I did try different  ones.

If it appears, this one should be the eye heart face   😍

Hi @mam98031, 

What browser and device are you using? Are you seeing error messages or do the emojis just not appear when the post goes live? 

Thanks!

What fun.

Has there been any progress on the longstanding "authentication failure" problem?

Or the constant getting logged off issue?

That's the same issue. 😃

We're working on this issue with high-priority. It's proving tricky. Thanks for your patience!

Hi alan@ebay disable the Take The Survey pop-up, and it's solved. If the page jumps as you're composing a post, it's that pop-up, and the token is trashed.

---

Thanks for the tip, @coco9619. Will test that out to see if it helps.

Hmmm you're right. I don't see it on mobile. We'll work on getting that added asap. 

Thanks.

emojis aren't working for me personally on Chrome or Firefox on Windows 7 Pro 64-Bit On my previous post I noticed it has something to do with that "class" attribute.
