E-Blah Community  /  E-Blah Bugs  /  HTML Formatting in Board Name and Sub-Categories
Posted by: HuttonIT, July 21, 2005, 3:23am
I have just upgraded 2 boards and noticed that when you use HTML in The board name it allows it so you can have the name appear as a hyperlink back to your main site.
See http://www.ndpa.info/mb or www.ebtc/forum you will see the name is actually a hyperlink.
This works but if you go back to admin adn alter something else in the Forum Settings all you get in the box 'Forum Name: box is '<a href='.  This is fine now I know it but must be a bug in the coding.

The other think is that you can not use HTML at all in the Categories or Sub-Categories all it shows is the html so say I wanted to show 'Bord Rules' in Red and Bold all I get is either the Blah code or html showing in its entirety and not the desired effect - Board Rules

With 8.2 I was able to use HTML and Blah code in these areas.

I can still use mark-up language in the catagory descriptions but again something is adding the ASCI code instead of leaving the symbles when I use HTML

I have made my board names links using HTML in the name field.
