cromptonnut Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Hi all If you aren't currently using your signature space, why not use it to publicise our area group? Copy the whole block of text below and paste it into the "Signature" section of your profile. [center][color=#0000ff][b][color=#0000ff]Living in Sussex, Surrey, Kent or South London? Why not join the [i]RMWeb [/i][/color][i][url=http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/forum/245-south-east-coastal-area-group/][color=#0000ff]South East Coastal Area Group[/color][/url][color=#0000ff]?[/color][/i][/b][/color][/center] [center][color=#0000ff][b][img=http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy154/cromptonnut/secaglogo_zps0cfd02c3.jpg] [/b][/color][/center] You will need to turn on BB mode (top left button above Bold) and paste it in to get it to work properly.

RMweb Gold BlueLightning Posted June 5, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 5, 2014 consider it done EDIT: the code doesn't seem to of work SECOND EDIT: Had to type the signature out manually as it only showed the code when I copied and pasted Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cromptonnut Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Ah... I wonder whether you need to turn "BB Mode" on, paste the text, then turn BB mode off? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold BlueLightning Posted June 5, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 5, 2014 Just deleted my signature and re-did it with the bb mode suggestion and that sorted it. I feel I should be ashamed with that as I am a web developer by trade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenton Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 All I was suggesting was how you go about fixing it. Living in Sussex, Surrey, Kent or South London? Why not join the RMWeb South East Coastal Area Group? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cromptonnut Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 I'm confused because all I did was copy exactly the BBCode from my signature - which works for me and clearly works for several other people - yet it's not working here for Bescotbeast.

Kenton Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 You have corrected the code - this has now been corrected in all your signatures in all posts. But still not displaying correctly - just for you. bescotbeast, that's really weird. I just edited my post and copied the bbcode from your post into my edit. and it now works ok. Therefore there is nothing wrong with the amended code. As the bbcode button in the site javascript editor doesn't work at all for me I use the plain editor - as it worked for me in my previous post the problem has nothing to do with the editor. I cannot think of any other setting that may be set to produce this behaviour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Not sure where the error's come from but I've sorted it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenton Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Just deleted my signature and re-did it with the bb mode suggestion and that sorted it. Don't worry this is IPB code! defies all known programming logic. As said above I do not have the BBCode button to toggle on/off so as the code works in my post above it shouldn't have anything to do with that button. Well so the theory goes.
