The plugin has been there for a long time, provide a powerful feature for BBCode, but not so many notice. It amazes me so I create a thread for vb4.

It is too late as current vB state though

haha yeah that is why it needs every tool it can get ;P.....by then it is superior in some lights at least....for a few more years then oh oh hmm...

Andreas has really great mods, thanks for adding this thread.

Maybe if you add simple description in first post, I see it on image, but anyway would like to have it explained with text also.

Anyway, great addition.

tested and verified working....i like it to enrich bbcodes i already made and to combine some others....one thing i am not sure is good tho here....

it gives one option prompt, then the second option needs to be manually edited in? i didnt see a second prompt

it is fine for me, but you know these instagramming generation im not so sure about hmm

[IggyP]

one other limitation i dont like....

if you do not manually edit in the second option it will break the bbcode in the cases i checked....

for example in one case with a highlighter bbcode i wish to let the default text color remain as black, yet give members the option to edit in if they are wanting another...

i tried it basic with a class/css rule to test specificity but noticed not adding that "option2" broke the whole code anyway and wouldnt display at all....so even if the specificity is correct i cant approach it like that....i also tried making a redundant color code with !important applied but also fail...

um if it helps to see the code i mean like this

basic 2 option highlighter bbcode....works unless you do not edit in option 2, which....most people would not do instinctively...

my failed tries...

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)

with the css in the last example being:

trying to avoid adding confusion of more and more and similar buttons in editor hmm..any ideas or its just the limits built with it perhaps?

I have done some text to clarify the feature, but in developer way

The logic of this plugin is just simple. What you want requires much more work. It's really worth to dig in if it was 8 years ago. vB has ended their support for forum add-on. vB4 is EOL also.

I've added description at first post for your case.

If you create a bbcode with 2 options, you have to input 2 options. However you can leave some options blank like this

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Otherwise bbcode won't show.

There is better way but it is also more complex.

Thanks for textual clarification, it is more helpful, especially part that we need to enter all options, even if they remain blank.
