2018 will be the year of adding [PLAIN]-tags to a lot of posts Why? Example: (January 12, 201 After embedding it in those tags (to avoid smileys) it looks like this: (January 11, 2018) In general this will also lead to loosing of all formattings within the tags. Test #1: Source: Code: [PLAIN][COLOR=#0000ff]:( This is bold and blue :)[/COLOR][/PLAIN] [PLAIN][COLOR=#ff0000]This is red :)[/COLOR][/PLAIN] [PLAIN][S](8) strike-through (8)[/S][/PLAIN] [PLAIN][SIZE=5]Font 5[/SIZE][/PLAIN] [PLAIN][U][I]Italic+Underline :) (2018)[/I][/U][/PLAIN] Result: :( This is bold and blue :) This is red :) (8) strike-through (8) Font 5 Italic+Underline :) (2018)
There is a solution to get rid of the smiley but without loosing the text color or other formattings. For example to have a bold "(8)" we can try to: write it without [PLAIN]-tags = ( embed into [PLAIN]-tags = (8) This is not what we want but the solution is this: (8) (8) including the [PLAIN] and [/PLAIN] tag has to be marked in bold and now the format is preserved (and the smiley is gone of course) Test #2: Source: Code: [B][COLOR=#0000ff][PLAIN]:( This is bold and blue :)[/PLAIN][/COLOR][/B] [COLOR=#ff0000][PLAIN]This is red :)[/PLAIN][/COLOR] [S][PLAIN](8) strike-through (8)[/PLAIN][/S] [SIZE=5][PLAIN]Font 5[/PLAIN][/SIZE] [U][PLAIN]Italic+Underline :) (2018)[/PLAIN][/U] Result: :( This is bold and blue :) This is red :) (8) strike-through (8) Font 5 Italic+Underline :) (2018)
