I converted away from Zetaboards using a crawler converter and ended up with several old, incompatible BBcode that didn't make it through. This BBcode shows up as its HTML (or XML) equivalent on MyBB.
For example, if something was [big]text[/big] on the old forum, it now shows up as an ugly <big>text</big> on the new forum.
I figured I can fix this using MyCode, especially since I quickly got the hang of regular expressions. My code works just fine in the preview box in the Admin CP, but it doesn't do anything on the actual forums. Here's one I worked on:
Expression:
Replacement:
Enabled?: Yes
Parse Order: 0
I've tried doing several variations of the expression that are perfectly valid, but they would only work in the admin cp. Does this maybe not work because the MyCode system isn't designed for <> brackets, only []? Or is something clashing with some HTML settings?
Thanks!
Edit: I had the wrong replacement code I used by accident lol. Fixed.
