SyntaxHighlighter integration

Question

Hi,
Is it possible to add SyntaxHighlighter integration with Q2A?

It will be helpful to sites dealing with technical questions and answers like mine.

Found one syntax highlighter here.. looks good..

Answer 1

Sure, you can add any post-processing of the content of a Q/A/C inside thefunction qa_post_html_fields(...) in qa-app-format.php within the section:

if (!empty($post['content'])) {
 ...
}

The whole goal of that section is to convert the raw text into HTML, including filtering blocked words and highlighting URLs.

Answer 3

Since this post was brought up again, I'll just add that the Markdown editor now has an option for syntax highlighting - https://github.com/svivian/q2a-markdown-editor

 

Answer 4

I needed SyntaxHighlighter integration with CKEditor and Q2A (not markdown, but SyntaxHighlighter itself).

Basically, you need to download ckeditor-syntaxhighlighter, a plugin for CKEditor, copy it into CKEditor's plugin folder and enable it in the config file.

I wrote an article with detailed instructions: http://www.inforbiro.com/blog-eng/question2answer-ckeditor-and-syntaxhiglighter-integration/
