BBcode request: [hr] for horizontal rules

Postby arthaey » Sat Dec 12, 2015 10:00 pm

PhpBB apparently doesn't support self-closing or opening-tag-only BBcodes, so it would have to be something like:

Code: Select all

[hr]{TEXT}[/hr]

Code: Select all

<hr title="{TEXT}">


Or without any text at all, since I can't imagine really wanting that...

Code: Select all

[hr][/hr]

Code: Select all

<hr>

(A brief glance at the phpBB forums suggest that it doesn't support self-closing tags, so "<hr/>" may not work. But I'm not sure which versions of phpBB that may or may not have been true for.)

Well, let's see if this works:




Yup. You can use it as:

Code: Select all

[hr][/hr]

…which is awkward but the best I can do with this version of phpBB.
