🤔 ABOUT THIS VIDEO 👇
I am wondering what is preventing Envato from improving the (very) obsolete “Item Description” and “Profile” text editor. Or at least from extending the accepted HTML elements and attributes. Even just allowing the inline styling of elements (“style” attribute) would help us achieve much better and visually more compelling results for both the item descriptions and the profiles. Nowadays, we are bombarded with visually compelling content, even when receiving emails as every email client largely supports inline styling or even embedded CSS.
Considering that the reasons behind this long-overdue improvement cannot be technological since Envato can count on the one of the largest community of brilliant minds in the web development market, I am trying to figure out what the real reasons can be.
The following limits of the current editor are holding us authors back a lot and should be removed or greatly improved:
– it is not possible to embed elements from other websites (e.g. YouTube, Vimeo, etc.). This seems to be unreasonable and forces us, authors, to work around this limitation with solutions that are overcomplicated and not as effective, especially considering how easy it is to get the embedding code for any major video content website;
– stripping both the center tag and the style attribute from the allowed HTML elements, makes it basically impossible to center an element in the section. I have heard of people calculating the maximum width of the section and saving a picture with some transparent space on the sides in order to get a visually centered image… come on!!!
– stripping the target attribute from the a tag makes it impossible to decide when an external link should open in a new tab or window
– it would be great to add a “Preview” button to check the appearance of the item description before committing the change. This would avoid dozens of description updates just because of a mishap in what we put in the description.
I would love to hear your opinion about this matter.

🤔 ABOUT CODEREVOLUTION TV 😃
Hello, I’m Szabi, a 32 years old guy living with my wife and our beautiful 4 year old daughter Maya. I started my journey in WordPress plugin development back in 2017, when I quit my programmer job and became a full time stay at home WordPress plugin developer, entrepreneur, blogger and also daddy. Since then, I implemented over 100 WordPress plugins, earning my full time income from them.

I started this YouTube channel to share tutorials for my plugins with people who are using them, however, since then, the channel has evolved into a daily VLOG, besides of tutorials for my plugins, I am sharing here also my insights about how to be a successful entrepreneur in our current times.

I really enjoy finding problems and solving them using creative and easy to use solutions to make life easier, this will reflect also in this YouTube channel!
