Ok I just got this board today for my websute, b/c I was using coolboards, and they as of June 29th will no longer be available!! So I switched but have a big complaint!! I do not like how you have to use a dang code to make your print bold or a different color, and have found you cant do both!!! So is there not a way I can change that so that I wont have to use those dang codes???? Please anyone let me know if this can be done!!!!

Aimoo is considering adding a new feature that will allow HTML in posts. Did you say that you can't make a post bold and have color at the same time?

test

See if the above test works.

BTW, using this code is much more safer than allowing HTML. HTML gives troublesome users a chance to wreck your boards with destructive HTML codes. What options did Coolboard give you?

You just need to know the coding. Don't use those pop-up thingys (at least I don't. Click on the section that says "UBB Code", and a pop-up window will come up, explaining how to use this code.

If you click on "Bold" in the MSN message board, everything you type in the text box will be bold, and if you select "Bold" and "Red", everything you type in the text box will be bold and red. Am I correct?

Was my idea of MSN Message Boards correct? It would be pretty damn simple if Aimoo was like that. However, very very very few message board providers have such an easy-to-use coding. EzBoard is the worst. It doesn't even provide prompts, and it expects you to memorize lots of strange UBB codes.

Yes MSN message boards are that easy, but one big thing, you have to have your website there, and its a web community, so the only people who can view your website are people with an MSN email addy(hotmail) or a msn passport!! Which sucks!! Thats why I got a new web site with homestead, its just a personal web site, but hey thats ok!! Anyways, When I moved I had to search out new message boards, I really enjoyed my coolboards messageboard, but they will no longer be around come June 29th!! Sooo here I am once again looking for a good message board, and yeah I know, ezboard sucks!!! I tried it, well I signed up, but I never even linked it to my site!!

Yeah, but Coolboard used HTML, which is much harder than the Aimoo UBB code.

Isn't not letting users use any code worse than an immensely complicated one? LOL...

Admin's right. HTML is very easy to crack. Someone even managed to post Javascript on ezBoards (that allowed HTML) and screw them up. That's the problem with ezBoard: security. I see we can all agree on the fact that ezBoard sucks! Hehe...
