Feb 12, 2009 15:50:30 I've recently been doing a lot of work on the homebrew forums, but my material has gotten so bulky that it's taking up more than one post, which I think is intimidating potential readers. I'm under the impression that if you sblock parts of a post then they don't count towards the character limit, but I might be mistaken. In any case, how do you sblock text?

Replace { } with [ ] and you get:

Title of sblock
Stuff you want sblocked

Alternatively, you could click the "forum FAQ" link on the top toolbar and go to the vB codes quick link list.

Loki - you can demonstrate code usage without using the curly braces. The NOPARSE tag allows you to show exactly what the code would look like:

[noparse]
Title of sblock
Stuff you want sblocked

[noparse][noparse]
Show
Stuff in sblock

Wow, I did not know about noparse tags.

Thanks Zherog and Z_B, now I've learned something new today!

No, but... I block sigs; I got fed up with the ridiculously long ones and so blocked them all. But if you point out one where you're having a problem, I'll go look at it.
