How to use [Tags] & Attachments


BBCode Tags

BBCode is a special implementation of HTML, offering great formatting control on particular objects in a post. BBCode tags are enclosed in square brackets: [ and ].

- Insert an Image: [/img] and [/BigImg] Tags

To post your map image you can use the [/img] tag or preferably the [/BigImg] tag. To do this, you have to copy/paste your map image URL between the two tags with the following format:


Code: Select all

[img]http://image_url[/img]

or


Code: Select all

[BigImg]http://image_url[/BigImg]


For example,


Code: Select all

[img]http://static.conquerclub.com/logo.png[/img]


gives this result:

- Insert a Link: [/url] Tag

The [/url] tag can be used to post any URL. For example, it could be useful to have your older versions of your map listed into the first post without using images.
To use this tag you have to copy/paste your URL between the tags.


Code: Select all

[url]http://your_url.com[/url]


There's an additional version of this tag. If you want to have some text to replace the link, you can do that in this way:


Code: Select all

[url=http://your_url.com]your_text[/url]



e.g.


Code: Select all

[url]http://www.conquerclub.com[/url]

Result: http://www.conquerclub.com



Code: Select all

[url=http://www.conquerclub.com]Conquer Club[/url]

Result: Conquer Club

- Insert a Spoiler: [/spoiler] Tag

The spoiler tag can be used to hide from view a part of your post. For example, the mapmakers can use it to include a list of old version links into the first post, but have them hidden from view.



Code: Select all

[spoiler]your_stuff_here[/spoiler]

Result:

e.g.


Code: Select all

[spoiler=example]This spoiler also has a [i]"example"[/i] label.
To insert a label you need to add [b]=your_label[/b] to the opening tag, like in this example.
Now click [u]hide[/u] to close this spoiler[/spoiler]

Result:

Attachments

A mapmaker can decide to attach the XML to the map topic instead of using a hosting site.
The attachment tab is located at the bottom of the posting page, next to the post option tab.
