How do you edit default bbcode? I forgot how to do this

[James Birkett]

If it's quote/code tags - look in the related template.
My forum has some SQL errors so I can't look for the other ones, sorry!

[indie2industry]

it's the [img] bbcode I'm trying to edit.

no one knows??? Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooow :-(

Modify the BB code handler for the IMG tag, then you can do whatever the hell you want in processing the tag.

[M.C.]

yes but where I need to go to do it?

[kh99]

I believe you would need to change the function handle_bbcode_img() in includes/class_bbcode.php.

kh99, is that the same place you'd go to change the alt text that appears for the default Insert Image button in forum posts, etc? doing a search for insertimage.gif and "Insert Image" doesn't uncover anything in that php document.

[kh99]

That php file is only where bbcodes are processed. Using "search in phrases" I find a phrase with text "Insert Image", so that may be it (although I haven't tried it). Try adding a translation for that phrase.

Thanks for that sugg.

FYI. It seems that if you want to override the default behavior you just add a new custom bb code with the same name as a default one. ie to override the IMG tag, just create a new custom tag and name it IMG with whatever properties you want. Fun stuff!

Thanks, I didn't know that. I thought I had tried that and had it tell me that the code already existed.
