Why isn't BBCode working for me?

Fighting a War
So, when I try to edit BBCode in, or even use the built-in text editors, everything works in the editor, but it shows up as raw BBCode in my actual post... For example, if I try to make a divider, it will work, but when I try to bold text or change the size, it only works in the editor, here's an example of my plight:


[SIZE=36px][B]Test[/B][/SIZE]

It might be because you put the divider around it, and it canceled the BBCode. That's the only thing I can think of. The divide code should end before whatever you want under it and should start after whatever you want above it.

I'll try it with the divide inside the other things


Test




It worked! Thanks!

No problem :)


Though the easiest way is probably like this:


[B][SIZE=36px]words[/SIZE][/B]


[divide][/divide]


It's guaranteed to not mess up :)

Ooohhhhh, in the guide it puts the divider around the word, but that is definitely better!

Honestly, I've never done it that way. Heh. I didn't read the whole guide though.
 
I skipped the little things and went to tabs and then accordions, honestly. I'm a problem child.


If you ever need anymore help, feel free to shoot me a PM! I'd be happy to help :)
