BB code is a set of tags based on the HTML language that you may already be familiar with.
They allow you to add formatting to your messages in the same way as HTML does,
but have a simpler syntax and will never break the layout of the pages you are viewing.
The ability to use BB code is set on a forum-by-forum basis by the administrator,
so you should check the forum rules when you post a new message.
Below is a list of the BB code tags you can use to format your messages.
The [list] tag allows you to create simple, bulleted lists without specifying an option. Within the value portion, each bullet is denoted by the [*] tag.
Usage
[list]value[/list]
Example Usage
[list] [*]list item 1 [*]list item 2 [/list]
Example Output
list item 1
list item 2
Advanced Lists
The [list] tag allows you to create advanced lists by specifying an option. The option should have a value of 1 (for a numbered list) or A (for an alphabetic with capital letters list) or a (for an alphabetic with lowercase letters list) or I (for a numbered with capital Roman numeral list) or i (for a numbered with small Roman numeral list).
Usage
[list=Option]value[/list]
Example Usage
[list=1] [*]list item 1 [*]list item 2 [/list]
[list=a] [*]list item 1 [*]list item 2 [/list]
Example Output
list item 1
list item 2
list item 1
list item 2
Images
The [img] tag allows you to embed images within your posts. You can also combine this tag with the [url] tag to make images become links.
The [php] tag performs the same function as the [code] tag, but also adds syntax highlighting for PHP code. Although it is designed for PHP, it may correctly highlight some other C-like languages.
[quote]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet[/quote]
[quote=John Doe]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet[/quote]
[quote=John Doe;40600537]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet[/quote]
Example Output
Quote:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet

Stop BB Code Parsing
The [noparse] tag allows you to stop the parsing of BB code.
Usage
[noparse][b]value[/b][/noparse]
Example Usage
[noparse][b]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet[/b][/noparse]
Example Output
[b]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet[/b]
Attachment
The [attach] tag allows you to display an attachment in your post rather than at the bottom. It will only display attachments that belong to the post in which it is utilized.
The [justify] tag allows you to align your text so that all lines have the same width, making it both look great and much easier to read at the same time. This is especially useful for long paragraphs!
Usage
[justify]value[/justify]
Example Usage
The following two paragraphs both hold the same placeholder text. The second one, however, will be aligned using a justify tag:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed odio metus, euismod eget dignissim vestibulum, hendrerit molestie augue. Phasellus et erat sodales, consectetur quam a, interdum orci. Aenean vehicula posuere nunc, placerat vehicula augue rhoncus vel. Donec venenatis ornare ligula a luctus. Donec tristique est nisi, vel pretium odio tempor non. Curabitur consectetur ullamcorper risus vitae hendrerit. Nulla a nulla nec nulla sagittis sodales. Interdum et malesuada fames ac ante ipsum primis in faucibus. Nullam vitae rhoncus sapien.

Aenean suscipit nibh sit amet pellentesque aliquam. Aliquam quis massa quis dolor lobortis viverra in a dolor.

Gallery
The [gallery] tag allows you to add interactive image galleries to your posts.
Galleries can conveniently hold multiple images and even videos:
[gallery=Custom Gallery Title]

[/gallery]
Don't bother the slightly complex BBCode syntax, a user interface for creating galleries is available in advanced text editor mode.
To ensure best performance, it is highly recommended not to use images that are too large in terms of file size.
However, the same applies for dimension, because having to scale down many large images might affect performance of your gallery negatively. It is therefore recommended to use separate versions of the same image for main image (720x405px by default; will change with aspect ratio and gallery size), thumbnail (80x45px) and fullscreen image (high resolution, e.g. 1920x1080px) that roughly match the respective dimensions.

Language Filter
The [lang] tag allows you to localize sections of a post by only showing the tags's content to those using the same forum language as specified in the tag option field.
