Admin Post Title field as textarea (with TinyMCE)

My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

I recently received a request from one of my bloggers to be able to change the font/font size/font color of their post titles, and I'm wondering if anyone has attempted this before.

I am currently using the TinyMCE plugin for text formatting within the content area of the post forms in the b2evo admin. How would I go about changing the post title field to a text area and applying the TinyMCE plugin to that field, as well?

Any assistance is much appreciated. Thank you!

You can only do so in the skin.
What you can do is this: copy the skin he is using into a new folder (all files). Crack open _main.php, change the font of the title in

<h3 class="bTitle"><?php $Item->title( '', '', true ); ?></h3>


and save.

You can now offer your bogger the new skin that should appear in rhe skin list under the name of the *new folder*.

Good luck

If it were only going to be that easy. This guy wants to be able to change the font/size/color of titles at the time he makes a post. So, for example, he posts today and wants the title in 18pt Arial in orange, and tomorrow's mood may be 12pt Verdana in green.

Well, I am going to flex my PHP muscles and see how fast I can break b2evo attempting to do this.
