PHP parsing in forum?? help

[Bilderback]

I just tried to post in a forum to show someone basic use of PHP variables.
The porblem is that the $variables disappeared after submitting.
Example:
[CODE]$my_variable = "my_string";

After submitting the post, it displays as shown below:
= "my_string";

Does anyone have a clue why this is happening?
Is the PHP parsing within the forum for some reason?
It does the same thing with [QUOTE]
Thanks
~sorry- I'm using 3.7beta4

Do you have any hacks on your site? Have you tried disabling them and seeing if this problem still occurs? When you running a different version before and it was working then?

if you have no hack involved, you may have to report this bug to the official site, for better support. vb 3.7b is not actually supported publically...

Yes, thank you.
When I disabled the AME Automatic Media Embedding product (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=150863),
the BBC works.

I'll take the issue over there.
~thanks again

This looks like the variable is evaluated by that modification, this might be a serious security issue.
