Extending the Journal Plugin?
Just a random thought I had tonight... would anybody know the degree of difficulty editing the Journal plugin so that it can include smiles, URL\'s and images in the posts? Similar to posting a story in GL w/htmlarea or the forum plugin.
I was able to edit the plugins/journal/functions.inc and had htmlarea taking control of the textarea, however, saving the journal entry resulted in a blank page and that entry just not saving.

It filters all HTML somewhere (search for \"strip_tags\"). This should probably be changed to call Geeklog\'s COM_checkHTML() instead.
From there, it shouldn\'t be to complicated to replace the editor with something like HTMLarea. Just make sure to include all hidden and visible input fields of the original editor.

it looks like it passed through the following line:
Text Formatted Code
$je_summary = addslashes(htmlspecialchars(strip_tags(COM_checkWords($je_summary))));
Text Formatted Code
$je_summary = addslashes(htmlspecialchars(COM_checkWords($je_summary)));
Text Formatted Code
$retval .= nl2br(stripslashes($A["je_text"]));-- destr0yr

Quote by Dirk: You were on the right track - htmlspecialchars converts
$retval .= nl2br($A["je_text"]); [/code] However, i get the same result...
a view source shows the following...
Text Formatted Code <br><P><STRONG>blah blah</STRONG></P><br />
<P> <A href="http://www.okanagangirlz.com">http://www.okanagangirlz.com</A></P><br />
i'm trying to understand it... but @ the moment i dont see how the htmlspecialchars will help.
pls advise.-- destr0yr

Quote by Dirk: I meant that you should remove the call to that function 
i did, and it still doesn\'t work?! plain and simple, this is what i have:
$retval .= nl2br($A[\"je_text\"]);
but displaying the journal entry still shows the code on the page.

In function savejournalentry() I now haveand it works as expected ...
Oh, and of course you need to test that with new entries.

I'm looking for something that extends the Journal plugin as well so it will include a photo that a user wants to put into the journal using a browse upload or even html. Yes, adding smileys and images would make the journal script one that every site would probably use. I can't code pure gl to save my life so could someone who knows gl take a shot at doing it? Peace.

If you have glMessenger installed you can use the smilie function and benefit from the online smilie library editor. Forum 2.3 will also detect if glMessenger is installed and allow you to use the glMessenger smilie functions.
The following code handles replacing the emoticon
with the HTML img code.
$message = msg_replaceEmoticons( $message );
Additionally this funtions will display all the unique smilies in your library and can be used in your posting journal page or pop-up smilie help.
echo msg_showsmilies();
