Reply To: Request: Backticks optional?

Thanks Stephen for the reply and suggestion.

I’ve looked at those yes and they work great except for code that has backticks in it 🙁 … Some examples shell code that is being posted on my forum actually uses backticks in the code which makes it all a big mess … 🙁

The current “fancy” editor doesn’t work well with code either, specially when switching back and forth between WYSIWYG and code.
In this day and age I’d like to avoid that my visitors have to “code” their own HTML to get a message posted right.

What I’ve done so far:
– create my own rich editor
– disable backticks in bbPress

This works pretty good, but it most certainly is not perfect either.
Obviously changing bbPress core files is a no-no from a maintenance perspective (hence my request).

While looking for a solution I noticed that I’m not the only one experiencing this back tick problem – frankly; the editor for bbPress needs some serious reconsideration … isn’t it time for a capable WYSIWYG editor?

No disrespect intended to the developers!!
I really appreciate the enormous amount of work they have done, and I understand that my editor issues are maybe not the top priority.
I really like bbPress as a forum for WordPress, and I consider it so far the best option out there.
