This hack in a nutshell: All users on your forum will be able to add optional BBCode to format all of their posts with.
This was inspired by DarthCow's user setable default BB code formatting for each post hack for vBulletin 3.0, borrows a couple of regular expressions from it and used it for reference in one spot. Everything else is my own.
Version 1.03: Regular expression bug with colors and fonts fixed. SQL query added to install code.
Version 1.02: Regular expression for "Default BBCode" field edited to support fonts with spaces in them.
Version 1.01: One file edit was moved to a plugin, which allows the Lite version to be pure plugins. No functionality was changed, so if you already installed version 1.0, there is no particular reason to upgrade; however, if you do want to, simply install the new product and undo the file edit by finding and removing this from includes/class_postbit.php:
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
-enable or disable default BBCode for individual posts you make
-choose in your user CP whether to see any default BBCode at all
I should note that I have very little previous experience of PHP (although I'm not new to general website scripting) and this is my first real hack. It was a challenge to make, perhaps more challenging than I assumed it would when I started it. But as I'm new to this, the code is most likely not the neatest you've ever seen, and there may be unnecessary file edits that could be made into plugins, etc. although I did my best to fit everything I could into the plugin system. All I know is that it works like a dream for me.
There are almost certainly bugs or something, so I'm releasing this as a beta and any pointers to make the installation less of a hassle would be greatly appreciated. Please excuse if there is anything I've done dreadfully wrong in the format of this, too. I will do my best to provide support, although I can't promise I'll be able to solve all your problems.
1 Product install
2 Custom profile fields
3 Template edits (in 6 templates)
7 File edits (in 6 files)
2 Plugin edits
There is a "lite version" too: if all those file edits are scaring you away, they are only present because of the feature to enable or disable default BBCode in a particular post. I can imagine quite a lot of situations where members would really not want their default BBCode on one particular post of theirs so the hack is definitely better with it, but if you would rather be using a plugin version with one template edit, go to this thread
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Download the product and import it.
2. Add two custom profile fields:
