I was just making a post and when I tried to add colour to my post using the [color] and [/color] tags it didn't work. I even tried just "green", which use to work before? Did this feature get deleted (without notice)?

[color=green][color=green][/color][/color]

See how it works? (Try to quote my post and you'll see the code)

Okay, it's working now. But, for my post in this thread, the colours did not show up. Actually, you will probably only be able to see my text if you're admin. You can see in my quoted text and even when I previewed the post with # in front of the colour code, it did not change the appearance. My example above shows that the # symbol is not required in order for colours other than "green" that use code to work.

But it might be just one of those occasional glitches. One time I tried to quote this person's text and for some reason, no matter what I tried (for changing around the text), I couldn't get a quote box around the person's text. 🤢 🤨 They seem to follow me pretty often on the site though. 🤣 I must poke holes in how some of the code in the site works.

Actually, the problem is that you need the [color] tag around the actual text and not the [url] tag. That's what happened in your post in that other thread.

Manick, you think you could fix this?

why not just put the color in the url tag?

i'll look at it

I can see that my post got edited so that there's colour in it. 😉 Did the problem/solution/error show up? Was it because I was trying to the [url] and [color] tags together?

[color=red]Works[/color]

[color=red]Doesn't work[/color]

You see the different between the two?
