Add already available WordPress Quick tags api to Text area

@siradhana,

I might create a separate plugin like that. But, I purposely did not add those things because once you add a title field, and quicktags, and images, then it becomes a regular frontend posting form. There are already regular frontend posting form plugins out there if you need all of that.

The purpose of this plugin is to have a very simple way to post quick thoughts, notes, etc., without having to input a title or add images or formatting. It is somewhat similar to tweeting on Twitter.

Also, if you try this plugin out you’ll notice that it actually strips out HTML tags if you try to post HTML. This is also on purpose to keep it text only, minimal, as well as secure.

The way I use it on my blog is, if I want to post a quick message, I use this form. But, if I want to post something longer, with formatting and images, then I just go to my admin dashboard and use the standard built in posting form.

Again, if I can find the time I will create a separate plugin with the quicktags and a title field.

Thanks so much for your suggestions and for checking out this plugin!

please create that plugin too… why i am saying this is because this plugin is and can be lighter & fast than whats already available…

please create that plugin too.sir

we would wait for that…

@siradhana,

Ok, I’ll do that. It’ll be fun to make a fancy version. It won’t happen right away due to my current schedule. But, most likely, within about a month I’ll get it done. Who knows, maybe sooner. You can monitor wilcosky.com for updates. I will post there once the plugin is ready. ??

@siradhana – I have a new plugin which may work better for you. It is not available at www.remarpro.com yet. Instead you need to download it using the link below. This version has a title field (optional to input a title), category field, draft post mode, and it uses WordPress’ default editor which includes the add media button for uploading images. There are also some settings on the “Writing” settings page in the admin area. This version still does not have a way to change the post type automatically in the settings. But, if you really want to do that, you can add a line of code manually. Open the main php file in the plugin main folder. Around line 135 you will see code which inserts everything into the database. Add a new line just above the ‘post_author’ line, and paste in:

'post_type'=>'custom_post',

Of course change custom_post to the name of your custom post type.

Probably within a week or so this new version will also be available here in the WordPress plugin directory.

Thanks for this.

I can’t add the category field to my sample post form. It is being added, but not being saved, so the preview is the same as before without the category field. Also, something happens so that I cannot open wordpress admin or my site after that for a few hours. Please help with this.
