    [Forum] I hate ckeditor

    Hello, I hate ckeditor and I don't understand such things, like why the image button create an attachment instead a simply IMG tag. If I want to attach a file I can click over the attach button, don't you think?

    I need an updated board but with old WYSIWYG editor. Why I couldn't choose?

    the image tag adds an image
    you can however upload that image to your site, and that's where you see the [attach ] tag..

    neither will happen without a lot of work.

    the new editor isn't going anywhere, I'd suggest getting use to it and figuring out how to use it..

      the op has a point, it's a regression and afaik in the tracker. many people don't want to allow people upload images (of indeterminate copyright) to our sites. it's one thing hotlinking images, quite another downloading content from other peoples sites then uploading it to your own.

        I'm confused. This works exactly the same way as the old editor in 4.1.3. What's the issue?

          I agree
          Also I for one like the "upload this file to your website" option as do my members.
          I'd rather host the files myself vs hosting them on another site which could delete them.

            To achieve the behavior you want, all you have to do is set this option to No.

            Admin CP -> Settings -> Options -> Message Attachment Options -> Advanced Insert Image Popup - Enable -> No

              Sorry at the time I thought this setting was broken. I thought I saw you on another thread saying that. It seems to work however I get "invalid url" no matter what value I put in. I think this may be an issue with my local setup though.

                  not to mention the copyright issues as people upload images they found on the net.

                      My members are always complaining about the new editor too. Only vbulletin.com loves the new CKEditor lol.

                        I guess a bunch of folks asking for ckeditor wasn't such a hot idea after all. So many complaints...

                          No matter how awesome or new or great something is, some people still don't like it. After they fixed the IE9 crashing bug I really didn't have much of a problem with it.

                            Liking is one thing. Not being able to use it because of bugs is another.

                              What bugs make the CKEditor completely not useable?
