Journal Entry Preview

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
I think a direct "preview" for journal entries would be great. I'm the sort who likes to take advantage of my coin stash by posting globally. I play games, I pose questions, I make friends, I read others' posts. It's one of my preferred ways to engage with the community.As I learn more about what I can do with styling tags, etc., I've begun building things in articles, then copypasta into a journal entry. But it occurs to me that eliminating this sort of fiddly annoyance is part of what WA handles best.
How does this feature request address the current situation?
Currently, there is no way to preview a journal entry except by constructing it in an article and then carrying it into the journal interface. I am hoping that because there is already a mechanism in place for previewing articles, that this could be easily carried over into the journal interface.What are other uses for this feature request?
It's really a request for a new use of an already existing feature. :)The Team's Response
Good idea! This will be implemented in a future update.

on 2023-06-23 15:41Yes please, if I'm writing a long journal entry I have to write it in a private test article first to make sure I've closed all of the bbcode tags correctly

on 2023-06-20 10:48Personally, for a workaround, I post it, then go to my page, click the little pound/numer/hashtag sign on the top right corner of the post on my own feed, and check it there. Then, I edit it if need be (even though the title itself cannot be edited, the body can. just make sure always to check the box that says "make it a Journal Entry"). Still, previews would be a great feature, if it were possible. Thanks so much for suggesting this. God bless. <3
