Hi
I think I am close having finished the Blog Upgrade to 2.0 Syntax. The only major issue I
have is that if i have WYSIWYG as the default editor I cannot switch the editor because in
the 2.0 WYSIWYG toolbar there is no SWITCH EDITOR icon.
This seems to be the default behavior in 2.0 which is fine for regular pages but in the
Blog this is not working out because there is no way the user can switch between the
editors because there is no 'Choose editor' panel.
Any way to reintroduce that SWITCH EDITOR icon onto the 2.0 Toolbar?

If you edit a regular 2.0 wiki page you'll notice the WYSIWYG editor has
two tabs above the tool bar and the menu bar ( http://tinyurl.com/lenva6
) . The "Source" tab allows you to edit the wiki syntax so it's similar
to the "Switch Editor" tool bar button from the old editor. You can make
the tabs appear when editing blog articles by editing
templates/textarea_wysiwyg.vm and replace
#wysiwyg_editProperties($tdoc $editors false)
with
#wysiwyg_editProperties($tdoc $editors true)
This will load the full editor, instead of the compact one.

Right now you cannot replace the "Source" tab with a tool bar button.
You should make a feature request in JIRA. I tend to prefer a tool bar
button since the tool bar is configurable ( http://tinyurl.com/mb2hd8 )
but the tabbed interface was been voted iirc.
Thanks,
Marius

The tabs were part of the UI design proposal ( http://tinyurl.com/n5z42l

There's no custom editor configuration for the blog application. We can
have one but I don't think it's a good idea.

Right now yes, but the "full" flag can be used to drop other features in
"compact" mode if we wish to. It's not a "displayTabs" flag only.
- shouldn't we have a switch button in compact
mode?
Switch to full mode? I'm not sure. The tool bar is a place for tools so
it's not the right place IMO for this button. It's hard (if not
impossible) to define the "compact" mode and I think most of the users
will switch to "full" mode from the start because some feature that they
like it's no included in the "compact" mode. Showing the most used
features by the current user in "compact" mode would be good but it's
not easy to do.

BTW we need to conclude on the fact that we still have 2 text editors
which is bad. And they're even different.

Well, I tried this and it works to some degree but for example Links were lost when
switching to the Source tab.

This is a bug that was fixed in 2.0M2 AFAIK.
