Migration Efforts
Bregs, I'm going to be moving the guides I have (since I can edit those) made on the other forum over here. From what I can tell so far, our new post options don't have tables so it'll take me a bit to figure out how to recreate my work.
I'm going to test out the code display soon though, hopefully that will give us a better look for our weak aura displays.

Looks like I can add some custom BBcode, similar to what this user did:

Re: Migration Efforts
OK, I have it working in every style except "Latte" (which is a pain to edit).
To create a table, while posting:
1. Click the new "table" button in bbcode list
2. Click the "tr" (table row) button
3. Optional: If you want a header, click the th button, then type in your header content, then move past the [/th] code, and repeat for each column heading you want. Then move past the [/tr] code, press Enter, and click the "tr" button to start a new row.
4. Click the "td" (table data) button, type in your content, then move past the [/td] code, and repeat for each cell you want. (Then optionally press Enter to make it easier to read the codes when editing.)
5. Move past the [/tr] code, then repeat step 2 for each new row you want.
The codes to produce the table shown here are:

By the way, there's an "nfo" button for "no-formatting":

You may all have to hit "Refresh" to get the table style to render properly.

You. are. awesome!
One day I'd like to learn PHP as well as you crazy administrator types. Actually, how did you learn? I've tried self-learning a few times but the amount of work is insane to start from scratch.

Re: Migration Efforts
I don't actually know PHP very well -- just the basics. But I've been a light programmer since I was 12, a loooong time ago. Started with BASIC (AppleSoft Basic in my case), moved on to Pascal, then learned C/C++ and basic scripting languages like csh in college.Conn wrote:You. are. awesome!

If you don't know how to program already, I feel it honestly doesn't matter what programming language you start with. Start with a book intended for a 15-week course that teaches loops, variables, etc. After the basics, set yourself a simple goal, like learning how to write a very straightforward game like Mad Libs.
And doing all this config stuff on this website, to be honest, required absolutely zero programming. It's just familiarity with how WordPress and software packages work, following instructions, uploading files, editing config files, setting menu configurations, etc. My Unix background helped, because I could troubleshoot problems when I looked at the log files and saw why things weren't working. ("Oh! The reason the forum isn't running is because permissions were wrong on the adm folder.")
