Forums upgraded to UBB.threads 7.0

Thanks, but, that was there for ages /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

 

Yes, the syntax for the command markup did change. The two major changes are:

1. "u" changed to "up" because if conflicted with the default underline code.
2. all "hold" joystick directions are the same as the tap, but suffixed with an underscore.

To find out the new commands, drop down the smileys menu, mouseover the command icons and read the tool tip. You can enclose them with square brackets or colons. The current definition is as follows:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Code:</div><div class="ubbcode-body ubbcode-pre"><pre> tap | hold | buttons
----------------+---------------------+------------
[ub] [up] [uf] | [ub_] [up_] [uf_] |
[bk] [f] | [bk_] [n] [f_] |
[db] [d] [df] | [db_] [d_] [df_] |</pre></div></div>

The "+" icon doesn't work due to a bug in the current version. It'll get fixed in the next upgrade. And there's a new neutral "n" icon added, for those occasions you need to hit a button whilst the stick is neutral, such as DM attacks /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/u.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/n.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif.

BTW, I mentioned these changes in this very thread. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

 

I tried. Unfortunately, numbers don't work correctly as "smileys", for the same reason the plus sign, and other characters, don't.

In the next upgrade (v7.1) I think all of this gets fixed, and I may consider changing it to, or at least adding, number notation then.

 

Using the [img:left|right|center] code will have a built-in hspace of 10px.

I've updated the latest news posts, so the padding should be fixed.

Thanks for bringing this up.
