Adding a cite button in the editor
For the type of content written for dagensskiva.com the ‘code’ button in the editor has no use whatsoever. Instead we find much more use for a ‘cite’ button, a tag that is frequently added to posts, but there is no button for it. This JavaScript snippet will replace the code button with a functional cite button:
index = edButtons.length;
edButtons[index] = new edButton('ed_cite', 'cite', '<cite>', '<\/cite>','c');
jQuery('#ed_code').attr('value', 'cite');
jQuery('#ed_code').attr('onclick', 'edInsertTag(edCanvas, ' + index + ');');
jQuery('#ed_code').attr('id', 'ed_cite');
This code registers the button, then changes the properties of the ‘code’ button to transform it into a ‘cite’ button. Works in both WordPress 2.3 and 2.5.
