HTML HELP.

[whimsicalx]

I'm not sure how to go about posting an HMTL code. I haven't been here in awhile so I'm wondering if the <> is the html button to post your codes in. I'm wanting to use a HTML for my roleplay but when I push post after putting the code in, it only shows up as the code.

You need to have a 500 content count to use HTML.

 

[whimsicalx]

Can you elaborate on that?

On your profile there is a content count. You have to have at least 500 to use HTML. That's like posting anywhere on the site but private messaging and private workshop don't count.

I tried to use the html coding in private workshop to see if it would work and it didn't.

I'm trying to use one of her freebie codings. The second one that gives the coding but I'm having trouble with it appearing.

You can't use coding unless you have a 500 post count. You don't have that. I meant that the way to get that is to post anywhere but private messaging and workshop don't count.

OH! I thought you meant 500 post in html. Now I understand. Thanks.

No problem.

To answer your initial question: once you reach 500 posts (give the system time to update, it can take a few minutes), you should see a new button appear that says Source.  Clicking on this will take you into "HTML mode," which is where you do the actual coding. Clicking it again will put you back into normal posting mode. As far as I know, the <> button just displays code, it doesn't actually let it do anything.
