Code showing on forum post
« on: January 03, 2018, 01:51:15 am »
I'm creating a User Creations Collection post, and writing it out to preview what the rest of the post will look like before I gather up the download links, I see the code showing, and the size code will not work.
I put a word there to see if the problem would resolve itself, it didn't. I put a space between codes, it didn't work either.






[size=14]SOUNDS[/color] Test




[size=14]TEXTURES[/color] Test




[size=14]EMOTES[/color] Test




[size=14]ITEMS[/color] Test




[size=14]PRESETS[/color] Test




[size=14]OBJECTS [/color] Test




[size=14]MESHES [/color] Test




[size=14]OTHER [/color] Test

Code: (Actual code, quote this post and you'll see the codes matching.) [Select]
[hr][hr][hr][hr][hr] [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]SOUNDS[/font][/color] Test [hr][hr][hr][hr][hr] [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]TEXTURES[/font][/color] Test [hr][hr][hr][hr][hr] [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]EMOTES[/font][/color] Test [hr][hr][hr][hr][hr] [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]ITEMS[/font][/color] Test [hr][hr][hr][hr][hr] [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]PRESETS[/font][/color] Test [hr][hr][hr][hr][hr] [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]OBJECTS[/font] [/color] Test [hr][hr][hr][hr][hr] [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]MESHES[/font] [/color] Test [hr][hr][hr][hr][hr]
 [size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]OTHER[/font] [/color] Test

I can't pinpoint what I did wrong. Is 14 not a size? Is the /color code supposed to show here? Did I add too many Horizontal Rule codes? Did I just break the forums? Did I mess up the space-time continuum somehow?

My presets.

Good things take time, so I'll take an eternity and create something so good that the human brain can't handle the sheer goodness of it.

Sometimes it can be very picky and just make everything look funky just because you switched some of the codings around. Just switch some of the words around and it'll eventually work out.

As Azura stated, I would make sure that your codings are in order. Whatever is the inner most BBC code (for example "font=quiverital") must have the inner most closing bracket spot (/font). It goes outwards. For example, for your first bit of text, it should look like this:
[size=14][color=slateblue][font=quiverital]SOUNDS[/font][/color][/size]
and not this
[size=14][font=quiverital][color=slateblue]SOUNDS[/font][/color]


Notice the ordering of that and it should make more sense

That's fixed the /color code, but the size code won't work and keeps showing no matter where I put that code.

[size=14]EMOTES[/size] Test
Code: [Select]
[size=14][color=slateblue][font=quiverital]EMOTES[/font][/color][/size] Test

Just looked at it again:
[size=14] should be [size=14pt]
