[Plugin: Front-end Editor] Re-initialize FEE after JQuery event?

Once the updated content appears, its html does not show any FEE span tags because it is being populated dynamically from an external php file.

Those spans tell the FEE javascript what is editable and what’s not, as well as other important bits about how to handle the editable parts.

You could manually try to register a new field, but I don’t guarantee it will work:

// Set the filter
var filter = 'the_content';

// Manually create a data object (see the data- attributes of the span tag)
var data = {
  post_id: 123,
  type: 'rich',
}

// Choose the editable area; this is supposed to be the <span> element
var $el = jQuery('#some-selector');

// Create a new editor instance
var editor = new FrontEndEditor.fieldTypes[data.type]();

// Populate various other properties of the editor object
editor = jQuery.extend(editor, {
	el: $el,
	data: data,
	filter: filter,
	type: data.type
});

// Ignite
editor.start();

It would be better if you made the AJAX requests to admin-ajax.php. Then you could just do apply_filters( 'the_content', ... );
