Great work

That's right but nonetheless, thanks! :)

Nifty!

thinks

I installed this but it told me a highlight bbcode already existed. I used highlighter instead for now, but I don't have a highlight custom bbcode, so is there a default code called highlight?

My default vB 3.5 installation didnt had a default highlight code. :confused:

Same as marksman1 - mine told me Highlight already exists. Running latest version ie:3.6.0

Richard

<span class="highlight">highlight</span> does already exist

<span class="highlight">Highlighted text</span>

Above text uses tag: [highlight]

...not exactly highlight, tho

If Highlight exist, change the Title to

Title: Highlighted

and the Example code to

Example: Btw.: The default Highlight BB-Tag came between 3.5.x and 3.6.0.

How can I make all my hyperlinked text highlighted with this thing? It would sure look better than an underline under everything. Better yet, is it possible to have like a mouseover highlight effect for each hyerlink text? Thanks.

If you like to replace the link style in general then you should go to AdminCP, Style Manager, Style, Main CSS and look for Normal Link CSS, Visited Link CSS and Hover Link CSS settings.

I think you could modify this code to create a dropdown background color tool!

Wish these bbcodes could work with firefox too

I use
and I use [hl]

This allows users to put something like [hl=blue]Text[/hl] for a blue highlight. It works in FireFox too.

It can also be combined with [color] to make a blue highlight with yellow text for example.

Anyone know if this works with 3.7?

They don't have it installed on this forum....

Use:
for a better highlight... it adds 2 pixels padding around the text.
