With a new forum comes some new BBCode that will allow you to post multimedia content and be a bit more creative with your text.

The new tags

Center: Centers your text.

Like this

Left: Aligns text left.

Right: Aligns text right.

Aligned right

S: Strike through text. Useful for edits. Strikethrough

Sub: Subscript text Subscript

Super: Superscript text Superscript

Youtube: Let's you embed a YouTube video in a post. It should work with all of the different language domains. IMPORTANT: DO NOT PASTE THE URL. ONLY PASTE THE VIDEO ID. The video ID is the text string after the equal sign (=) in the URL. Example:

Code: Select all

[youtube]0qAQCG9siFY[/youtube]

MP3: Let's you embed an MP3 file in a post. Example:

Code: Select all

[mp3]http://www.some-website.com/speech.mp3[/mp3]

Vimeo: Let's you embed a Vimeo video. To embed a video, cut and paste the Vimeo video ID between the Vimeo BB tags.

For example:

Code: Select all

 [vimeo]1234567[/vimeo]

How to use
For linked images, just put the URL inside the hsimg tag.

For attachments, no need to do anything. Just upload the image or place it inline and enjoy!
