There are no open tags... It works on my forum... Perhaps you forgot to copy and paste the full thing.. With the </font> at the end for the replacement code.. ?

What do you put in as the option for the [GLOW] tag?

This is where you put the html color code for what color you want the glow to be.

This is a great BBCode until you have more than one post that uses it. What ever the last post is that uses a glow color, all of the posts in that thread then turn to that color.

use dis subst in stead:
<style type="text/css">
font.glow{option} {text-shadow: 0.0em 0.0em 0.5em #{option}, 0.0em 0.0em 0.5em #{option}, 0.0em 0.0em 0.5em #{option}}
</style>
<font class=glow{option}>{param}</font>

[TEMPESTADE]

I'm running 4.1.3 ans it work fine for me tanks

[TheChief]

Added and loving it, cheers mate

[doctorsexy]

im on 4.1.3 it didnt work untill i swopped ths <style type="text/css"> with this <style type=text/css>...for some reason...

[steveyos666]

use dis subst in stead:
<style type="text/css">
font.glow{option} {text-shadow: 0.0em 0.0em 0.5em #{option}, 0.0em 0.0em 0.5em #{option}, 0.0em 0.0em 0.5em #{option}}
</style>
<font class=glow{option}>{param}</font>

vb 4.1.3

The OP gives me the error where the last color choice changes all previous ones, but this post here works fine with firefox 4, but with IE9 (both this one and OP) I see nothing, just looks like a normal post, but who uses IE9 anyway or IEanything for that matter :D

[victorvu]

Thanks for the code, but it did not work for me in V 4.1.4.

[n00bl3t]

Yeah this would be really awesome if it worked for 4.1.4

[Mooff]

Just checked on our testboard (running 4.1.5) it does work.
We prolly won't use, was just curious why that shouldn't work anymore.

Anyway, i modified the css-replacement code above (i think it's cleaner that way - no offense intended):

<span style="text-shadow: 0.0em 0.0em 0.5em #{option};">{param}</span>



Hf guys.

[Kirk.H]

work's on v4.1.7

[JimxJNM]

this is great. but when i tested it in my Shoutbox it doesn't show any glow. i fixed the settings for the shoutbox to allow custom BBCodes, but it didn't show any glow. any help?

Be aware with {option} being used in the CSS like that a nefarious person could ruin the look of your page if they enter malicious code... They could change the look of pretty much anything or even make the page completely blank.

It would be a lot safer if you didn't use {option} and manually specified a glow color in the replacement text instead.
