| You will now notice that BBCode works in most all areas of the site. This includes forums, groups, profile comments, as well as article, poll, and blog comments. Not sure what BBCode is? Check it out here. Basically, it's a quick and easy way to add links, videos, and other things to your posts.
In addition to the aforementioned areas, BBCode will also work on profile pages. That is, in the About Me / Likes / Dislikes / etc. sections of your profile. Some other changes have been made to the way the sections of your profile are displayed. Here are the two most important items: 1. Spacing is now handled automatically. This means it is no longer necessary to place <BR> tags to add spaces within your profile sections. If you have previously done so, you may notice some extra space on your profile--you can fix this by removing any tags which add extra space. 2. Profile sections are now checked for bad HTML, and some mistakes will be automatically corrected. If you notice that your profile now displays a little differently, you might need to compare the source code being displayed vs. the code you have entered in your control panel to see what was fixed. Most importantly, make sure you're closing all tags you open within each section of your profile. I don't think this will be a huge deal for most people. Another small change is that it's no longer necessary to use any special code to post a link. In any of the above mentioned areas, if you post something stating with "http://", it will automatically be turned into a clickable link. Let me know if you encounter any bugs and... Enjoy. |

Have you disabled some things? Music player stopped working, and I'm pretty sure it's not broken coding or anything. March 4, 2013, 12:54AM |

I am not a big fan of BBCoding, but guess it's something I'll adjust to. I'm annoyed. I dislike BBCoding. No functionality has been removed. BBCoding is added functionality. If you don't like it, of course, you don't have to use it. ------ ... March 7, 2013, 8:12AM |
