Anything is possible. There is a feature freeze until 1.0 is released. Fine idea though.

Yes, please. That would be awesome.

check out this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tinymcecomments/

Why the need of a preview box if you have the What You See Is What You Get Editor in the same place as your visitors type in the comments?

This plugin turns the comment field from a primitive into a WYSIWYG editor, using the internal TinyMCE library bundled with WordPress 2.0 or up, without the need of another separate installation. Functions that only available to writers like adding images were removed and will not show up in the toolbar.

If you add to the mu-plugins and add this line to the end of the plugin file:

add_action(‘template_notices’, ‘mcecomment_init’);

This is only the concept, I have not tested it, and don’t have the time but wanted to point you in a direction.

Which ‘toolbar’ are you talking about. We have three that might be the one you are talking about. We have the ‘member adminbar’ which has ‘my account’ ‘my blogs’…, the member and home theme ‘button bar’ which have ‘news’, ‘groups’…

In all cases you have to modify the code or develop a plugin to make additions or modifications.

We’ve been working with Lisa Sabin Wilson of eWebscape who built a custom BuddyPress installation on our newly launched site http://www.weheartthis.com

(Andy – We love it so far and think it will really help us build a great community!)

Some of the biggest issues we’ve faced:

1) IE issues – page alignment is off, toolbars do not work, lots of 404 messages (we’ve encouraged our members who use IE to download Firefox or Safari instead, fingers crossed that the official release will help with some of these bugs)

2) We have the same avatar cropping issue as mentioned by other posters – it’s very hit or miss for us, sometimes it works fine, sometimes it just can’t be done at all)

3) The browser title bar will read, “oops, that’s a 404 page” or “nothing found for ____” even when it isn’t a 404 page or it has found something.

4) We have installed BBpress forums as well. The password and login of our member works for both applications, but members need to login at second time when they land on the forum main page (even if they have already logged in earlier)

Thanks (and any feedback on the site is appreciated.)

How about adding a small TinyMCE toolbar for the Wire? Oh and also.. A small reply link with every Wire post which would take you directly to my Wire or even better, show up a small text-box which would post your reply directly to my Wire. Wouldn’t that be great?
