Let's goooooo!!! Fantastic job on this.
Stoked to try this out..
Primal's article editor is the best that Nostr has to offer. I've used them all thus far and writing on Primal's editor has been the best experience to date.

Hey Nostr, the Primal Article Editor is here!
Our goal was to build a feature-rich, rock-solid long form note editor that interoperates perfectly with other Nostr long form apps like Highlighter, Habla, and Yakihonne.
It’s a complex product with a lot of moving parts—not easy to nail on the first try. We think we got pretty close. Try it out and let us know what you think. We’ll keep improving it until it’s tip-top. 🫡

Woah! Can't wait to check this out
Kudos 😉
low signal notes from users who post too often kinda hurt my feelings.
Looks pretty badass!
Ooooh looking snazzy
Any love for markdown import/export?
I’ve been using the Primal editor for the last week. It is by far the best publisher I’ve used on Nostr.

Can’t wait to try it!
I'll try it on my next long-form article.
Yes!!
Ok thank you miljan 🤟💜🏴☠️
🤟🏻
Yoo we should make one of these for Marketplaces…
@npub1gmmr...e2h0
That’s quick! So how does the draft saving work?
Very excited to try this ⚡️
Yes 🔥 We need this. There are surprisingly few long form apps even though that is a clear winning use case for nostr. Excited to see this launch 🚀

Excellent work Miljan
Great stuff!
This looks really promising.
Our article editor is markdown-based, so all copy/paste actions should interoperate with other markdown editors.
You can also switch to code view via the main toolbar and copy/paste any markdown fragments if you don't want the whole document.
You get Bonus points with me if you figure out how to bring
@Lyn Alden's letters to Nostr blogs.
Forgive me, but where do I find this functionality?
You rock. Can you add
@Conduit.Market on there?
Looks neat!
Espectacular 👏
Very cool. Will have a go with it later!
Private article drafts are encrypted and saved on your relays.
This is fully open and interoperable with other Nostr apps that support this feature. For example, if you sign in to Highlighter you will see your private drafts saved via Primal (and vice versa).
Just tried it out.
Clean. Works nice.
It doesn't look like you have a link to it built into a menu yet, but I assume that is intentional until you get it where you want it.
Thank you!
You can access it in the Reads section of the web app (click on the "My Articles" button in the left nav).
Cool
Thank you for this!
Ah, okay. I see it now. Nice.
Makes sense! Thanks for the explanation.
We will be trying this out.
Are zap splits a feature?

@miljan Very cool, it's super intuitive and as a long-time WordPress user it felt really familiar. It's also great we can save and preview before publishing. I'm super impressed you already integrated tables! I just had a little bug with bolding but it was easy to fix looking at it in plain text; when saving it just changed ** for \*\*. Other than that, no issues at all, congrats ⚡️⚡️
Boa! Mais uma opção para fazer textos longos editáveis e artigos de forma geral 🎉

This is awesome, thank you for building nonstop!!!!!
Glad that someone noticed! 😉
No we don’t support zap splits yet
Yeah Highlighter is great; one of my favourite Nostr apps. We made sure to interoperate with it.
I love

That’s really nice
nice job
You guys rock 🤘
Man, you guys are so far ahead of everyone else at this point, slow down for nostr's own good (no don't).
ohhh this is very slick, me likey!
Cant open on Tablet ?? It thinks it is a phone :-) ..will test it on computer .. and ffirst thing I am looking for is hjkl :-) #vim style key bindings !
This is FABULOUS - but for me the Publish button is not working - neither in Brave Browser nor in Orion (like Safari). I have previously been able to publish and everything else seems to work fine - what is the issue with Publish? How to fix it?
Did you have any issue with Pubish button not working - it will not do anything for me in Brave or Orion browser - everthing else seems fine.
👀💜

Is it possible to edit something after it’s been published?
Yes, absolutely. Just select the "Edit Article" option from the context menu.
I use Brave as well it worked for me yesterday 🙏🏼 I did need to confirm the action with the extension I use - did you receive a confirmation to sign it if you use a signer?
Hmm... interesting. Which browser extension are you using (if any)? Also, is there an error message?
I am using NOS2X as suggested by ODELL - yes I did approve signing.
Hermosisimo/bellisimo!!

Thanks!
No error message. Using Brave Browser with Nos2X extension. Also using Orion Browser (from Kagi) is the same
When I try now with Safari and Nostore - I can see there is one Draft pending but it never shows. I cannot see it or click on it - it does show up in Brave and Orion

Hmm not sure 🤔 Maybe someone from
@primal can help?
We can't seem to reproduce this issue, but we have one other user reporting exactly the same problem, so you are definitely not crazy. 😅
Can you try publishing via Chrome? Or from another computer? I am curious if this is related to your setup or maybe something in the content of your article is tripping the publish command.
Exactly the same on Chrome - Publish button does nothing - no error, just nothing at all. Running on Macbook Air M1 with Ventura 13.1
The content was Copied from Ghost and Pasted into a new article - just as
@Marty Bent described in today's RHR...
and I have exactly the same issue in Brave Browser running on Linux Mint
Can you try this:
1. Copy markdown content of your draft
2. Delete the draft
3. Create a new article (exact same as the previous one) and publish without saving a draft first
Now it seems to have worked at first glance (it is number 8):

But when you try to read it - nothing is there:

I followed your steps exactly. The original article that I am copying from Ghost is here:
https://rogerprice.me/how-fed-up-are-you/. I copy it from within the editor, not the public view.
Somebody from our dev team will reach out via DMs on Monday to troubleshoot this. Thanks for your patience!
after testing, the Arabic language appears on the left side instead of the right in the browser, but it works fine in the app
Thanks for reporting; we’ll fix the editor part!
also found the same issue in notes on the web and app.

Okay, we just deployed an update that should fix this issue. Could you please try again and let us know if that worked?
Problem persists. It looks like it posts - it says that it has posted:

but it does not appear in my feed and when I click on it, it displays as nothing/blank:

Try again. I think we fixed it. It was a viewer issue, so you shouldn't need to republish the article.
Yes - indeed it is fixed now and works fine. Thanks for all you and the team are doing. BTW - any plan to have a tool or automation to help (re)publish items from Ghost into Primal Reads? Copy/Paste works but it is quite a few manual steps.
Good to hear that it all works now and thanks for the feedback!
As for your question about importing content from Ghost and other places... yes, we are working on this; stay tuned!
💯
This is excellent. Easy to use. Well done!
