Unwanted Copyright symbol (C) - Terje Vallestad - 01-05-2014 10:57 PM

Does anyone know how to avoid writing (C) Copyright symbol in the forum when you actually want ( C ) (but without the spaces either side of the C)?

I notice this recoding does not occur in the Subject line, why?

I could not find any reference to this on the MyBB website

Thanks, Terje

This happens with (r) too. You'll see (r). This is a weird parsing issue in MyBB it even changes the way Latex expressions are shown. The only way I could find to get around this is to put in a formatting code and it's closure between the ( and the c.

So ( [ b ] [ / b ] c ) will work (take out all the spaces).

Thanks Katie,

Will remember that for the future

Press button [B] to enter whatever.
And here we have some bold text.

Namir had the same problem with [ B ]. It was interpreted as bold tag.
Now we have a better workaround for this issue than having to use {B}.

Thanks
Thomas

I should be able to remove the C, R, TM automagic in a few days.


RE: Unwanted Copyright symbol (C) - Dave Hicks - 01-08-2014 06:01 AM

I've removed the automagic for (c) (r) and (tm).

Yes you have! I don't see them anymore in the old posts.

Thank you.
