What happens to bb codes in 4.x?

[Josh Bond]

After upgrading to 4.x, if you look in the appropriate database table for downloads or forum topics, would you still see the BB codes mixed in with the text? Or does 4.x try to convert the bb codes (bold, italics, url tags, font sizes, etc) to the html equivalent?

I understand that in 4.x the bb code functionality is gone from the front end for the user (can't edit a forum post or download description and use bb code). But what happens to text with bb codes already in forum topics table or downloads table?

Thanks,
Josh

Yes.
