Single Tag vB Code...

[cbn]

Would it be possible for a hack to allow the creation of custom vB codes where and [/ending] tag is not required, only a [start] tag?

You may ask, why not use a replacement? As we need the [tag] to be displayed instead of the rendered code when editing posts.

If someone could make this hack, please please let me know!

Please email me!

Thanks!

if you omit the ending tag, how is the script supposed to know where your tag ends and non-tag lines begin then?

you can make a new replacement and enable replacements in posts, look how: here

I'm still confused.

I need to be able to use a [tag] of some sort so that whenever I edit a post, the [tag] code is there instead of the replacement HTML code.

Say I create a replacement:

[dad] => <a href="http://www.commanderbond.net/Categories/9.html">Die Another Day</a>

So, I then post a topic:

Check out the lastest Bond news here at [dad]

Say I want to then edit the post, at the moment, all I get is:

Check out the lastest Bond news here a <a href="http://www.commanderbond.net/Categories/9.html">Die Another Day</a>

How can I get it to display:

Check out the lastest Bond news here at [dad]

...when editing a post...?

yes i know, thats the probleme with the replacement vars.

you have another possibility: download fireflys /me hack, and change the /me to for example [dad] and the replacement for /me to what ever you want, that'll do the trick, but you have to change the code from him, so if you can do so....
