This is also incorrect in BB Code:
That’s how I always did it on the other forum. HI THERE!
t8, edit my post, to see how I did that. It all worked except for the bold – just because you can’t tell. π

Hey Wm,
I see you found the signature. π You can use old BB code to make it a different color and size – so it stands out from the rest of your post.
mikeboll64 replied to the topic BB Code Examples in the forum Rules, Help Desk & Notices 11 years, 11 months ago
Okay t8,
Now I understand. So if I make a “New Thread”, it will be forum format, and not blog format, right?

Hey t8,
Case in point, concerning my long and blathering post………..
I just checked the “Newest Posts” or whatever it’s called on the main forum page. And the latest one listed was Wakeup responding in the “Baptized Into the Trinity” thread.
So you would think that since his was the NEWEST post on the thread, I could read it at the TOP (if…[Read more]

Now it worked, but the quote is all the way to the right of the page. Hmmmmm………….
It will take some time and playing around, I guess. π

Nope. Nothing quoted that time. It should have been:

Dang it! It didn’t work! π
I think I only used bullets two times in all the years I’ve been on HN anyway…… so it’s no big deal. I’m just testing things.
Which makes me wonder why the first part of your quote above (#1) didn’t show. I used the BB code to quote, instead of the “b-quote” button on the tool bar.

@t8
1. Lists donβt work here in bbcode because WordPress rejects it as the code is no longer kosher HTML.2. A proper list must now have a closing tag for each listed item, and bbcode only has an opening tag.
1. Okay. But that’s weird since other BB codes DO work.
2. I don’t believe you, so I’m going to the new code, but WITHOUT the “…[Read more]

There are a number of options available as to how the forum works and they can address these issues quite easily. The way it is now is intentional as it was how the old forum was. Oldest post first latest post last. This is a natural way to follow the conversation.
However, most forums have the latest post first so that people can visit…

@t8,
The BB codes are hit and miss. π I did them all right in that last post, and sometimes they work, other times they don’t. The first time I tried them, they worked until the end of the post too. Maybe there is a limit to how many you can use in one post? π

Hi David,
Shouldn’t the Bible make SENSE to human beings? After all, doesn’t it exist for the benefit of human beings?
So how much sense does it make for our ONE and ONLY Almighty God to have been WITH our ONE and ONLY Almighty God in the beginning? None.
How much sense does it make for the Word OF God to also BE the very God he is the…[Read more]

David,
Even the Trinitarian scholars will tell you that the Koine Greek of John 1:1 can be translated as either, “the word was THE god”, or as, “the word was A god”. In either case, we are ADDING an article to John’s words.
For the English translation of, the Word was God” – we must add the DEFINITE article “the”.

@mikeboll64
BB Code only works in the forum.
I guess the WordPress developers think that un-formatted comments are best and it differentiates the main article which is fully formatted from the comments. This seems to be standard practice across the Web too.
We are not hung up on that doctrine DavidL, it is just irrelevant because it is not scripture. We are merely exposing this doctrine as false.
[color=red]Actually Mike, I take that back. It looks like BB Code works here too. Good discovery.
Your comment above just needs a little tidy up. Best not to overlap BB Code tags. If you start with one, then close it before starting with the next. Also, any stray closing tags will show up as text.[/color]
Cheers π
