Title: Concerning all the choices in how to post
Post by: Action80 on July 09, 2021, 12:34:41 PM
I did a search (and perhaps it wasn't specific enough - if not I apologize) but could not find a user guide for using these choices of formatting here at TFES.

Is there a guide as to how and why one would use BBC or not use BBC, what the horizontal rule button is for, and the purpose of toggle view?

Thank you.

There is some amount of documentation on BBcode here (https://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Bulletin_board_code) and more generally on posting here (https://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Posting), but as usual for SMF, it isn't very thorough or complete. We also have some custom BBcode tags that aren't in SMF; they aren't really documented anywhere.

Generally, you use BBcode when you know why you want to use BBcode. There's no compelling reason to use it if you don't have a need for it.
