Otsikko: Administrators or Global Mods can use HTML in messages
Kirjoitti: nivek98 - maaliskuu 17, 2005, 09:04:10 IP
I think it would be useful if it were possible for Administrators or even Global Moderators(with an option to disable of course), to be able to post HTML code.  I realize this is there for protection, but in general if someone is trust worthy enough to be one of these then they should not be limited by this restriction.  I have found that i am editing the database alot to do things like post an obscured email address link, or if i wanted to put a flash animation into a post for some reason.

Is this possible? It seems only administrators can post using  - I would really like my mods to be able to.

Oh thank you so much, where would I be without you?  ::)

Anyone know if there is a mod out there for this?

Bump...

I can't believe this is not possible in SMF already, quite shocking you have to make a user admin just so they can post in HTML.

What about those news sites that use SSI and want a usergroup to post news, can't start making them all admins.

Use bbc code [works fine on my site], there is a reason why only admins can use it.

I need to use <div> tags and the Custom BBC mod is not available for the latest SMF version.

Any ideas of a work around?

I no longer have a problem, I just made custom BBC codes using the Subs.php

for example:

array(
            'tag' => 'quote_news',
            'before' => '<div class="quote_news">',
            'after' => '</div>',
         ),

Just for the record the reason why only admins can use full HTML it that if you enable the use of HTML you effectively make it super easy for someone to get admin access. Allow me to use HTML on your site and by the time you next log in I could easily be into your admin account.
