Title: Registration Agreement Formatting
Post by: Genichiro on May 05, 2012, 03:19:10 am: While making the registration agreement for my forum (http://www.tondebrigade.smfnew.com), I have found myself unable to use any kind of formatting (both html and bbcode), and return characters are rendered as spaces, leaving my agreement an unreadable blob of text and format codes. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thank you.

Post by: Genichiro on May 05, 2012, 03:37:22 pm: I still can't use bb code or html. Even something as simple as Please read the rules is shown as [b]Please read the rules[/b]

Post by: Genichiro on May 09, 2012, 06:04:19 am: Interesting. In the manual posted by simple machines, it says formatting is allowed in the registration agreement.
Registration agreement section of SMF manual. (http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Registration#Registration_Agreement)

Post by: Jacob on May 09, 2012, 01:12:00 pm: Hmm, I forgot about that. :P Have you tried checking the agreement in other browsers?
Title: Re: Registration Agreement Formatting
Post by: Genichiro on May 10, 2012, 06:34:52 pm: I checked it in both Chrome and Firefox. (I'm pretty sure it won't work in IE)

Post by: Jacob on May 10, 2012, 08:28:14 pm: Probably not. Usually Firefox is the best browser for SMF forums. Could you post a screenshot of the agreement editor and how it shows up to new users?

Sorry for the 20 Questions, I'm just trying to think of things that might cause the issue. :P

I did remove it. I didn't want to leave it there, since my forum is live. I put the code in a few times to get the screen caps and to check it over to see that it really wasn't working.
