Using ALT characters in profile fields?

[Checkmate MK8]

I tried that and it looks correct until you save it and then it reverts to the numerical code.

Try it while viewing your profile in the About Me tab, there should be a pencil icon next to the filed to edit it.

And did you change (Replace Red XX with the profile field number) in the code.

I tried that also.

I copy/pasted this - ★

When I clicked Update, it turned to this - &#9733

Yes, the clan tag shows up fine on the forum, members just can't use ALT characters.

Strange, doing it that way it works on the vBulletin default profile fields.

Does this happen if you try to apply the same in all browsers?

Also what font sets is your forum set to use?
