Support the WA Fronted editor plugin #41

Open r-a-y opened 9 years ago

r-a-y commented 9 years ago

When we started developing Social Paper, only FEE was a viable option for a frontend editor.

WA-Fronted is another frontend editor plugin that has more momentum behind it, appears to be less buggy and is in active development: https://github.com/jesperbjerke/wa-fronted

It has revision history support, which is on our roadmap and will probably fix many issues that we have with FEE including #10 and #30.

Some of our JS will need to be modified to support WA Fronted. Most notably, the sidebar settings toggle and comment auto-positioning code (see commit 39a83fc).

Marking this as a future release, perhaps as a v2.0.

This looks really promising - thanks, @r-a-y!

One lame side note is that the plugin requires PHP 5.4.3, a requirement we don't meet on the Commons production server. We (desparately) need to upgrade anyway, so maybe it's no big deal, but it's one more thing to do.
