The way we edit our guides and check the changes is very clumsy. We make some changes, save the guide, reload to page to view the result. It becomes very slow when small changes can mess up the whole appearance and you gotta constantly reload and adjust stuff to make sure it goes in order. My suggestion is give us an interactive view. A screen where we can put a code and see immediately the result. This will take away the need to constantly "view" our changes and reload the page over and over and make it much more intuitive to edit your code.

This is a very good suggestion and would improve the site greatly IMO. In fact, any tool that could facilitate previewing small guide fixes would help.
Thank you Byron for 2014's loudest laugh up till today

Definitely something that MobaFire needs. I feel like it's been suggested before, but maybe MobaFire has the means for doing it now?

I could have really used a system like that while updating my Guide over the last week, really good suggestion.

This sounds like a good idea, but I'm not sure how hard it would be to implement this (having to preview some of the bigger guides on the site especially seems like it might be pretty intense).

Will make sure to ask though, thanks for the suggestion :)

Thanks to MissMaw for the signature!

Thanks everyone for the great response!
I've came up with this idea after using a free site for learning coding basics, drawing, html etc, not sure if its appropriate to mention the name. It used a similar feature with two fields, one to insert the code and another which executes it.
Its not necessary such feature to be implemented on a major scale. A simple tool to preview even a medium amount of code would be great(and can possibly develop to a core guide editing tool), even if it means opening additional browser tag to run it alone.
