    I don't see why not. This would be a lovely feature.

    I don't really see a purpose for it considering you can always just use a personal conversation if you want more formatting options, but it's one of those "if you don't need it, don't use it," situations, so if enough of you do want it I'm happy to install it.

    yeah basically it was annoying to post vms when we made the switch because vB had the ability to use bbcode. We could post videos and it would be like on the forum instead of links etc. plus, since the creator states it's workable with our given codes, we could actually put things in spoiler tags. I don't see any negatives to this, just regaining what we lost before.

    Sorry, been working on testing another site addition. I'll play around with this tonight, if it all goes well it should be installed in a few hours.

    +1 for this.

    I mean, I don't really use BB Code too much in just regular old posts & probably wouldn't use it on profiles that much, but I could see the benefits to people who want to customize their messages and stuff.

    Installed & seems to be working, let me know if you have any problems.
    • The following BBCodes work in status updates: bold, italic, strikethrough, and underline.
    • In profile posts & comments: bold, italic, strike, underline, media, color, url, and font.

    Thank you, Cassie. c:

    Looks like we've got to add the bulletin board manually, but I don't suppose there's a way to add a toolbar like what VMs on vBulletin had? It's not a big deal, though. c:

    Copy paste, and or just type it dude. bold, italics, and underline bb code isn't hard to create.

    Of course. Hence the "not a big deal." c:

    Formatting isn't showing on the mobile skin, it just shows BB Code like [ i] and [ /i]

    Can something be done about that?

    Unfortunately the mobile skin is... buggy. I can look into fixing it but I have plans to replace it entirely.

    Videos only show halfway due to the comment chain size. Wondering if that can be fixed I dunno.

    Misty, are you sure it's fixed? The videos I post are still getting cutoff.

    Also, just a nitpick, I really hate how posting video links posts videos in the VMs now. I really just don't like it. Partly because it cuts off the video and partly because it has ruined a joke or two I've made with videos, especially if I copy the video at a certain time and post the links. :\
