Forum Coding How does this work?!
For those of you who come from places hosted by SMF or phpBB, Proboards may be a bit of a shock to you, because it's a very unique forum host, and one I happen to be extremely comfortable with. Proboards allows you to straight-on edit the look an feel of your forum, from the entire CSS file, to the HTML layout templates that control the build of the site. While that may not interest some of you, those of you who work with CSS and HTML should be delighted to know that Proboards' forum post coding is so very similar to actual HTML and CSS. Rather than using <>'s, you use brackets. For those of you who come from an SMF forum like WCRPG, and are used to working with FancyPosts, it's incredibly similar. Luckily, for those of you who might have trouble switching over, Proboards still recognizes some basic BBCoding, and will automatically convert it for you while you're still getting the hang of using strongly HTML-based forum coding. If you have further issues with adapting, especially those of you who code posting templates, feel free to shoto me a PM with what's bugging you, and I'll see what I can do to straighten you out.
