Where would I add the "action" tag at?

Edit: My co-admin helped me figure it out. Need coffee.

will make "/me does this" be displayed as:
* El_Muerte does this

in order for /me to only be replaced at the beginning of a line edit the "/me main" plugin to use the regex:

PHP Code:

$ircme_pattern = "/(^|\n|\r)\/me ([^\r\n]+)/is"; 


or you could simply add to something like "the [noprase]/me[/noparse] doesn't work now"

wth, why does [ color=red]text[/color] make the text green?!

So if i want the "/me does this and that" to be displayed in red...how and WHERE would i have to edit the XML file?

You simply add the [action] vbCode tag to your custom vbcode list like you quoted. You don't have to edit the plugin's code.
The [action] tag isn't added by default (but it is forced in the background).

I still don't know what you mean, lol

[Christine]

In El_Muerte's plugin called enforce default [action] bbcode hooked to bbcode_create , replace the <span></span> tag with:

PHP Code:

<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: red;">* %2\$s %1\$s</span>

For now, uninstall clicked..

It is too bad.. I haven't looked over the code, I am sure it is an easy fix, I just do not have the time.

Good idea anyway..
