New/Improved BB-Codes
Forum-Index → Suggestions → New/Improved BB-CodesHello! I've come across a lack of very useful/otherwise great BB-Codes many other forums use across the 2 years I've spent playing this game. Personally I find the limitations sad and would love to see more!
Some of the already-implemented ones are also in need of improving IMO.
-Lists; unordered & ordered
Very commonly used on forums that use BBcode. Great for organizing.
(Most are screenshotted/quoted from phpBB)
- unordered list

To create an unordered list you use
'[list][/list]' and define each item within the list using '[*]'.
For example to list your favourite colours you could use:
On certain sites they allow the use of more varied/specified bullet designs, such as circles, slashes & squares. ('[list=square] [*]x [/list] would display as a list with square-shaped bullets if it was a choice.)

- ordered, alphabetized

The second type of list, an ordered
list, gives you control over what is output before each item. To
create an ordered list you use '[list=1][/list]' to create a
numbered list or alternatively '[list=a][/list]' for an
alphabetical list. (For roman numeral lists one would use
'[list=i]'. As with the unordered list, items are specified using
'[*]'. For example:
ordered
alphabetized
roman numerals

-Font choices
Fonts are mainly a stylistical choice but can make your text look professional, even! Some also like the aesthetic of having a font different from default. (coughs)
A font is usually used like so: '[font=EX_FONT] Text here [/font]
A good bunch of examples:
-Text Aligment
You know the '[center][/center]'-code? well Something I'd like to see would be text aligned separately to right and indented text. (all the screen shots here are taken from Flight Rising)
(since '[right][/right]'-code already exists '[aligment=right][/aligment]' could also serve the job.)
- right-aligned text
- indented text
That's all i can think of right now! i was also thinking of adding improved columns to this post but that can be done later. Right now I need opinions and support on this!
Would love to have these. <3
