I know its probably really simple but yet when I do it it's not working

I want to make certain parts of my forum description stand out (make it bold) but when I try to make it bold it just shows I even made a custom BB code and it still doesn't do it

The bbCode parser doesn't activate for the forum titles/descriptions. You should use HTML instead, I think the HTML is allowed in forum descriptions. Basically the same as bbCode.



= <b></b>
= <i></i>
= <u></u>
= <span style="color: #FF0000"></span>
= <a href="http://www.website.com"></a>

Yeah, but some mobile browsers (and some ridiculously old browsers) don't support the strong tag. I think the only reason for the strong tag was for ADA compliance (it was introduced for the speech programs that read out loud for blind people, so it would put stress in the voice for strong text).
