 |
|
For those of you unfamiliar with BBCode, this document will teach you how to use it.
BBCode, which stands for 'Bulletin Board Code' is a special implementation of HTML and which enables you to add formatting techniques to your forum posts.
Such techniques include underline, bold, italics, font size, font color, alignment and images.
BBCode uses a system of 'tags'. Each command has a start tag and and end tag. So for example, in order to make something bold, you would put the bold start tag at the beginning and the bold end tag at the end of what you want to appear in bold. As follows:
| Info: | | [b]This text would show as bold[/b] |
You will notice the difference between the start and end tags. The 'b' of course stands for 'bold', but more importantly the forward slash in the second tag indicates it is the end or closing tag.
Click Here for details of all tags.
The easiest way to use BBCode tags, instead of typing them out, is to first highlight with your mouse whatever you want to add effect to and then click the corresponding button to apply that effect. Doing this will cause the system to automatically place start and end tags at the beginning and end of the selected text.
Other additional tags not listed at the above link are as follows:
To display a YouTube video use the following code:
| Info: | | [youtube]Insert URL of YouTube video here[/youtube] |
To align an image to the right with 'text flow' use the following code:
| Info: | | [imgright]Insert URL of image here[/imgright] |
To align an image to the left with 'text flow' use the following code:
| Info: | | [imgleft]Insert URL of image here[/imgleft] |
To align text to the right use the following code:
| Info: | | [right]Insert text to be aligned here[/right] |
To align text to the left use the following code:
| Info: | | [left]Insert text to be aligned here[/left] |
Should any additional tags be implemented or made available, I will add them to this topic.
