The vanilla phpBB indicates that it can accept html, but I've never found a way of getting it to post correctly. I suspect what phpBB thinks is html and what I do are not the same thing.
What I'm wanting to do is :
I receive a regular set of emails that are written in the html email editor and what I really want to do is cut and paste the whole body of the email into a forum posting.
But I havent been able to figure out how.
In one case, the emails come out in blue background with white writing, and its a total pain to convert them.
In others, they have multiple photos or pictures. And trying to recreate even a partial look in a forum posting is a major time consuming pain.
So is there anyway of doing this ? I can email you a copy of what I'm talking about if you need. |

| I might be misunderstanding what you wanting, but there is an HTML bbcode you can add, so you can post in HTML, you can control who is able to use it. |

You can add all HTML tags that you want to support in your ACP General Admin Configuration utility in the Allowed HTML tags field. You have to set Allow HTML to Yes first. Then if you plan to allow more than just b,i,u,pre, you need to include all other HTML tags that you want to allow in your forum...
This is what we allow here in RCF:
| Code:
|
|
b,i,u,pre,blockquote,font,img,li,ul,ol,table,tr,td,center,a,objec t,param,embed,bgsound,blink,iframe,marquee,Q,strong,tbody,br,p,hr,stri ke,sub,sup,tfoot,thead,tt,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,big,acronym,cite,code,col, colgroup,dir,span,th,div,noembed,script
|
Then you also have to have the Always allow HTML setting to Yes in your Profile as well:
Unfortunately, HTML didn't work well from phpBB 2.0.20 and up. That's why I reverted back to 2.0.19. Hopefully by 2.0.22, they have corrected that problem...
Also, you may have to take out all extra space between the HTML tags. For some strange reason, extra space causes problems here. That may be caused by the Allow multiple spaces in posts MOD that we have installed here, so it may not be a problem for you...
