Seperate BB codes for Signatures & Posts

[evenmonkeys]

I know ExtProof wants it. Who else wants it? Everyone, right?

[TwinsForMe]

I would, too.

[Darat]

So would I!

We gots people everywhere that want this. How difficult can this really be?

[evenmonkeys]

Still lookin.

FWIW, My hack is kind-of what you're looking for. A band-aid at least.

That won't do what I want it to do. What I want to do is force images put into posts to be 160x120 whereas I want to allow signatures as wide as 480. The only way to do that is to make two seperate tags; one for each part.

Right now I have a hack that disabled the use of [thumb] in signatures. That tag makes all images inside that tag 160x120. However, users can use both thumb and img in the posts.

I need to be able to prevent certain tags in the post as well so I can ONLY allow [img] in the signatures, and [thumb] in the posts. See what I'm saying?

Aah, gotcha.

I'm not nearly good enough with vB and scripting in general to write something like that, but if you could come up with some kind of regex replace, that would replace any instance of IMG in posts with THUMB, and IMG in signatures to use SIGIMAGE, I think that would do what you're looking to do.

Unfortunately I haven't the slightest idea how to go about that. If I'm totally off base, apologies, I'm only on my first cup of coffee today.

Yeah. I've been at this for some time as you might be able to see from the first post. =P Tehnically, you can create your own bbcode labeled [img] and it will overwrite the default one. However, that's still not doing what I want it to do.

The problem occurs when a user is using [signature] in the post AND in the signature. The only way I see it working is to disable certain codes in the post. =\

I've read through this thread twice and don't get what you want still.

Could you explain one more time?
