Post subject: How To Add Custom BBCodes?
I was posting a topic in my forum needed to add a table, and noticed that are not those bbcodes
I've looked around the search, but I didn't find the way to add my custom BBCodes...
This is the page:
I added at the first space a BBCode code like this:
[table border="1"][tr][td][/td]
[td][/td]
[/tr]
[tr][td][/td]
[td][/td]
[/tr]
[/table]
And added this code at the second one:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
When I pick "Send", this is the result
Quote:

It means:

You must specify the BBCode tag
«Back to previous page
I have no idea what is "BBCode Tag"

The bbcode tag is the "name" of the bbcode, in the brackets, i.e.:
[the name is here]

You cannot add multiple tags like you did...
Anyway TABLES are not part of standard BBCodes for a reason! It's not easy to create cells within tables making sure you close all tables correctly...
Follow the examples on that page... here is another one:
BBCODE: [background={COLOR}]{TEXT}[/background]
HTML: <span style=\"background-color: {COLOR};\">{TEXT}</span>

Well, I know how to make tables using BBCode and HTML also... but I think is not a good idea to allow HTML in my forum, am I right? That's why I want to add this BBCode

The issue is that, if someone doesn't properly close a table or a cell, the whole forum will look bad... And you can't easily check if they did a table properly or not.

Post subject: Re: How To Add Custom BBCodes?
oooh, I got it!
So, the only option is to use HTML, right?
Is not a risk to the forum? Because I have to make tables sometimes...

You can enable HTML only for administrators. Then it's not much of an issue.

Yes, I can do that, and I will... Thanks, Informpro

I used to use a big titles in the beginning or my posts. There are some BBCodes (h1, h2, h3...) that make bigger the titles, and I'd like to know how can I add this BBCode to the forum.
Because they are not dangerous to the forum, right? Not like tables, for example...

Post subject: Re: How To Add Custom BBCodes?
Nope, these aren't dangerous :). You can add those as bbcode, but you can also just change the size?

Is this a question?
If yes... Well, I don't know how can I do that, but I guess you could help me

Definitely! When you post a full message, you see a bot to select font / size / color right under the subject:
To make text big, here's how you do it:

Post subject: Re: How To Add Custom BBCodes?
Oh, I understood!!
Sorry... Yes, I know how to make the text bigger applying BBCode size and bold, and everything else...
But if I had a BBCode h1, h2, or h3, with different sizes and color, it could be easier and faster to post a message...

Ok, I see what you mean. Do you want them to output actual <h2>, or something with a different size and color?

Well, actually I want two of them: <h1> and <h2>. Usually the first one font is bigger than the second one, about 18px and 14px respectively.
But I notice that you refer to HTML code, not BBCode

Yes, because HTML comes with title tags I wanted to know if you wanted these tags, or if you wanted your own versions with different mesurements?

I don't know what are you talking about... I wrote <h1>TITLE</h1> but it shows as a code, not a title... So I don't know what are you talking about definitely

Due I'm not sure what do you mean, I have to explain what I want to.
For example:
[h1] = Color red, bold, 18px
[h2] = Color black, bold, 14px
Does it answer your question?
But if this matter is very difficult or not convenient, better if I keep going without this tags. It's not a big deal, actually

I wanted to ask if you wanted [h1] to translate to html <h1> or not, but now you've explained it.
The HTML h1/h2/... are not coloured, so you don't want to use them. I need to check if you can replace a bbcode template with another bbcode template.

Thank you, Informpro... I hope this is not much problem.

Cristianita, here is an example to get what you need:
In field
BBCode usage, input this:
In field
HTML replacement, input this:
<span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold;">{TEXT}</span>
And when you use
[t1]MY TITLE[/t1] you will get something like this:
MY TITLE
