Index of BBCodesAnd how to use itDefinitionBBCodes are little snippets of text you put in your message, which are used to format text. BBCodes also allows you to implement images, links and more in your posts.
The syntax is vaguely similar to html code, which is used to format webpages.
Highlighting your text and clicking on the relevant formatting button will automatically add the BBCode for you, but we're explaining the codes here for anyone who's interested, and for anyone who wants to use BBCode functionality where the formatting buttons aren't present (comments, private messages, quick reply, etc).
