Adding an Editor to a Page?

Question

I made a new page which would be an 'article submission'. The articles would be written like you write a question, but they would be stored differently. The first challenge is to get the editor to show on my page. How would I do so?

I tried copying some code from qa-page-ask.php but it doesn't display the form right.

Dont know what exactly is Your approach, but why not use the same editor and add a checkbox question or article. Or use two different buttons which send over a hidden marker.

Please read the following two questions as, well may be they do help:

Well I just need to display the default editor on a new page. You solutions would require hard-coding in the qa-page-ask.php file, I think!

Answer 1

Currently this is the code I use for the content of my custom page : 

 

$qa_content=qa_content_prepare();

 

$editorname=isset($in['editor']) ? $in['editor'] : qa_opt('editor_for_qs');

$editor=qa_load_editor(@$in['content'], @$in['format'], $editorname);

 

$field=qa_editor_load_field($editor, $qa_content, @$in['content'], @$in['format'], 'content', 12, false);

$field['label']=qa_lang_html('question/q_content_label');

$field['error']=qa_html(@$errors['content']);

 

$custom=qa_opt('show_custom_ask') ? trim(qa_opt('custom_ask')) : '';

 

$qa_content['form']=array(

'tags' => 'name="ask" method="post" action="'.qa_self_html().'"',

 

'style' => 'tall',

 

'fields' => array(

'custom' => array(

'type' => 'custom',

'note' => $custom,

),

 

'similar' => array(

'type' => 'custom',

'html' => '<span id="similar"></span>',

),

 

'content' => $field,

),

 

'buttons' => array(

'ask' => array(

'tags' => 'onclick="qa_show_waiting_after(this, false); '.

(method_exists($editor, 'update_script') ? $editor->update_script('content') : '').'"',

'label' => qa_lang_html('question/ask_button'),

),

),

 

'hidden' => array(

'editor' => qa_html($editorname),

'code' => qa_get_form_security_code('ask'),

'doask' => '1',

),

);

 

return $qa_content;

 

But it won't display the editor right - the stylesheets or scripts are apparently not loaded...
