New features

Post by Reality Bytes »

I've added some custom BB Codes which can do the following:

Oooo look my text is all red

apparently this justifys - might be useful for someone
The Turks Scarlets are gonna lose today! hehehe

If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you may have misjudged the situation.

I assumed a 'foe' would make that person invisible to you - but never gave it much thought really.

But then why would you need to add a friend to a list?

Is there going to be a 'new' button, to go directly to new posts in a thread? Or is it here already and I missed it?

You have to use the post reply button to get the full featured reply box up then click the youtube tab and the code comes up (without the spaces) [youtube ] in here you put the video ID string [/youtube ] the video ID string is the bit that comes after v= in the url.

it takes a little work to figure out what but of code you have to copy I figured it out by quoting RBs post and copying the corresponding bit of code from the url of the video I wanted.

One thing that might not be so obvious, and it took me a while to even consider the possibility, is that you can put links inside the quote header:

Code: Select all

[quote="[url=http://www.google.com/]Google[/url]"]
Becomes:
Google wrote:Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
