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.
This version of the Default BBCode hack does not have the "enable or disable default BBcode for individual posts you make" feature. The full hack is located here, but it is a Code Modification. Also go there for screenshots.

Version 1.02: Regular expression bug with colors and fonts fixed.

Version 1.01: Regular expression for "Default BBCode" field edited to support fonts with spaces in them.
