Escapist User Guide to Posting Commands

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

SNIP

Found out about another code that comes in handy.

You can post videos that are on the Escapist (like this week's ZP) by using this code:

[*video=4763]

*remove

[video=4763]


VOILA!

[sub]You can find the video number in the url on the video page. Enjoy![/sub]

Thank you for making customizing forum posts easy to understand. I will definitely be visiting this page whenever I need help.

Heres a tip, when you want to make a post with fancy formatting than before you press the post button hit the preview first. It will show you what your post will look like. I know it sounds a bit patronising but it'll save you lots of time if you are posting images and video because you can check to see if they are working properly and if not then edit the code on the fly.

I found out how to make a video stop and start at a certain time. Maybe you could add this to your video codes:

You can add these to the end of a youtube link: "&start=75&end=80"

That way, a video will start playing at 75 seconds in (1:15) and stop again at 80 seconds in (1:20).

Video example, for which I have typed [*youtube=uKhGI_-tcmU&start=75&end=80] (Remove asterisk):


This took me an age to figure out, but hopefully it will allow people to link short sections of relevant videos with a great deal more ease.

Awesome! I've been wondering how to do that for some time as well.

How do you write a spoiler in a black box that the user can then read by highlighting?

Out of the ones you posted in that list, the second one is closest. You just needed to remove the space and it should work.

I don't know if someone else told you or if you figured it out for yourself, but you can't do that on this site. I don't know why, but it's not a feature here.
