WoW Character plugin
The game World of Warcraft has millions of players. Many World of Warcraft players are in a guild. Those guild often have a website and use a forum to communicate with fellow guild-members.
I am wondering if someone would be able to write a plug-in for WoW players where members of a guild / players can enter their character information such as:
Name
Level
Race
Class
Primary Professions
Secondary Professions
This information would show up on a list on a separate page on the forums. (Perhaps in a table? Similar to the Member List).
If someone could write a plug-in like this it would be great.
Live Preview
I think it would be cool if there was a plugin that allows members of a forum to preview their message live, while they're still writing it. I think this can be done using AJAX?
WYSIWYG editor
I know you usually need to pay for a WYSIWYG editor, but there are also a few pretty good free WYSIWYG editor so perhaps this could be integrated with MyBB using a plug-in? I'm not sure if this is possible though, as most WYSIWYG editors use HTML and not BBCode (as far as I know).
Examples of free WYSIWYG editors:
NicEdit: http://nicedit.com/
TinyMCE: http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/index.php
widgEditor: http://www.themaninblue.com/experiment/widgEditor/
WYMeditor: http://www.wymeditor.org/en/
Footnotes
Would it be possible to write a plug-in that allows members to make footnotes to their posts, using BBcode or something similar? (Something like [FN1][/FN1], and the actual foonote would obviously show up on the bottom of the post [in a smaller font]).
