By default BBCode entered into the description section for a Custom Profile field is not parsed (ie, it is displayed as plain text).
Example:
Enter your real name(s) here.
[b][color=red]Note: This information can ONLY be seen by you and the forum admin.[/color][/b]
By using 'parse_bbc' for the Custom Profile field description it will be displayed as intended in the Profile Fields list display and/or in the member's profile edit areas (ie, 'Account Settings', 'Forum Profile', and 'Look and Layout') and on the forum registration form.
Example:
Enter your real name(s) here.
Note: This information can ONLY be seen by you and the forum admin.
