Personal Statement does not support bbcode - Profile page

Featured Replies

I don't know whether this is intentional but the personal statement on the profile page does not support bbcode. I think all entry text boxes should have the same editing facilities. :)

I agree, and it's been 'bug reported' already. :D

A lot of great minds out there.

great :)

No, the personal statement and profile comments do not use BBcode.

This is intentional, not least of all because the cramped space doesn't suit BBCode formatting - especially if people start posting images, etc.

It also reduces the temptation to spam links and such on random profiles as they won't be parsed.

can't you then just parse the ok bbcode like bold, underline, colorized, etc...

I believe it was stated somewhere that the profile system is modular, so it shouldn't be too difficult to change the behavior. Couldn't it be set up where the "safe" BB Code tags don't count towards the character limit?

Nice idea, I like that. :D

Ok, so support for bbcode was not intended, but was the lack of passing the new comments through the bad word filter also intentional? :s

That would be a bug you should probably report.

I did, but tacked on to another, I'll create a dedicated one now. :)
