Roadpower Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I'm not sure if I am just missing the option for doing markup code manually. Is it possible with this forum engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Not sure what markup code is. You mean HTML 'n stuff? I don't believe anything of this kind is supported here, but feel free to find out otherwise AFAIK you can post some links and they will embed (direct image hotlink, full youtube URL, Insta, FB [... sometimes?]) but that's about it. We have a testing forum if you want to try out something specific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadpower Posted June 14, 2021 Author Share Posted June 14, 2021 It's not HTML. It is manual formatting for things like bold, underscore, color, quote function, links (URL's), etc. I sometimes prefer to do it manually because it can be less confusing and quicker. Some forum engines will allow the user to switch between automatic and manual which is handy when you want to preview your work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I see what you mean. Being able to switch to a full "source" view of a post that could be copy-pasted into a text editor etc. That would be nice indeed. If something like this exists here, I haven't seen it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very interesting they took they step they did. Can't say I'm a fan but okay. Maybe I'll snoop around and see if anyone came up with an alternative means.
