Updated on 2/7/2012
This Guide is to Help New EoFFers learn how to use tags and shortcuts.
If you feel I have overlooked something, PM me the tag. (tables, etc.)
TAGS----------------------
SPOILERS--
example:
Hello
how to create:
What you want to hide [/ spoiler]
*no spaces*
To give the spoiler a title such as
[spoiler=Click Me] EoFF is awesome
replace the first spoiler tag with:
[spoiler=TITLE]
To underline the spoiler title use the tag
[spoiler] Hidey stuff [/ spoiler]
*no spaces*
IMAGES--
To add an image you can click on the picture of a landscape at the top of the posting bar or alternatively you can put the web address of the image in the tags:
[IMG] website [/ IMG]
with no spaces
Notice that when uploading a picture the Image tags are automatically added.
VIDEO TAGS--
There are two different tags that are used when embedding videos.
Use the tag
[video] embeding link [/ video]
*no spaces*
Notice that this will not work for Youtube links and some other sites.
To embed a Youtube video, copy the embed code and remove the http and youtube codes from the link, leaving something resembling this
7ezeYJUz-84
place the code inside youtube tags that look like:
[/ youtube]
*no spaces*
the end result will look like the following
[youtube]l6ZaSipHuO4
Note that these embeded videos are best veiwed in any browser except Internet Explorer.
QUOTE TAGS--
The best way to quote someone is to simply click the quote button at the bottom of the posts, however if you wish to make up a quote or remember what someone said but not where they posted, you can use the tags:
[quote] quote goes here [/ quote]
with no spaces.
