Description

We should add a preview for user contributed notes in the front end. This will aid the users in submitting notes without mismatched code shortcodes.

This is similar to #1180, but for the front end.

Add comment preview after comment form

#1 @keesiemeijer

1865.patch adds a live preview of the comment after the comment form with a AJAX. The preview is updated after you stop typing for 1.5 seconds. A button preview note is added to the editor. By applying the comment text filters in the AJAX callback all syntax highlighting and other styling is applied as it is with a submitted comment.

I've moved the syntaxhighlighter_htmlresult filter from /inc/handbooks.php to /functions.php because source code could be in post content, comments and handbooks.

I've noticed it doesn't update the preview when using the quicktag buttons.

1865.1.patch makes the preview modular so it can be reused for adding a preview to the comment editor as described in #1180. With this patch the preview is updated after clicking a QuickTag button.

In 3788:

developer.wordpress.org: Add a comment preview to the front-end form for user contributed notes.

  • Preview is fetched via AJAX.
  • Preview updates 1.5 seconds after user stops typing.
  • Adds editor toolbar button "preview note".
  • Moves filtering of 'syntaxhighlighter_htmlresult' outside of just handbooks since it can also be applied elsewhere.

Props keesiemeijer.
Fixes #1865.
