Guide & Boundaries

Admins can create one-click toolbar buttons and custom BBCode tags here. Writers use the resulting button or BBCode tag in their posts — they do not need to write raw HTML in posts.

How PARAM1 and PARAM2 work

One-parameter tag: [style1]writer text[/style1]

In this case, (PARAM1) = the writer's text between the tags.

Two-parameter tag: [style1=Header Text]writer body text[/style1]

In this case, (PARAM1) = the value after the equals sign, and (PARAM2) = the text between the opening and closing tags.

Admin HTML example

Enable Use admin HTML conversion on a custom tag, then set a template such as:

<div class="PostStyle1out">
  <div class="PostStyle1title">(PARAM1)</div>
  <div class="PostStyle1in">(PARAM2)</div>
</div>

Writers would use:

[style1=Header Text]Writer body text[/style1]

That renders only inside the post output. It does not change the Atlas page layout, admin UI, or saved forum data outside the post content itself.

Boundaries

Custom BBCode HTML is sanitized before render. Script tags, forms, embeds, event handlers, and javascript: URLs are stripped.

If an admin tries to include blocked markup, it is removed so the code only affects the rendered post content.
