OK here is my pb. Snitz does not accept the following BBcode
[url=address]address[/url]
you need to use URL="address" instead
the problem is that most free image hosts such as imageshack ignore this and generate a code like [url=address]address[/url]
so here is what you get
[URL=http://imageshack.us] [/URL]
so my question is: how can i tweak snitz so it accepts the code [url=address]
?
sorry if this has been posted already , couldn't find it |

| I don't know that that answers the question... unless I'm mistaken, eauxvives wants to eliminate the need for the quotes in the [url] code so that the code generated by ImageShack and others will work... |

sorry onewaymule, but it is not. please read my post again, or maybe i was not clear
I if copy the example in the FAQ, this works
but if i remove the "" in the URL code (which is what imageshack does), here is what appears
[url=http://forum.snitz.com/forum/][/url]
edit: yes, anon |

| I'd have to double-check how Snitz handles the code... I'd think it was possible. |

There was some posting about this subject a few months ago, I forget what the outcome was and I can't find the thread either  |

| I simply remember to change the imageshack paste. Add quotes, and also make sure 'img' is lower case. It would be nice if I could skip the step though. |

Has anyone found a solution to this problem yet?
I would sure appreciate it, because most of the users of my forum are not computer savvy enough to figure the "" out. There wouldn't really be a way to consistently pass that info along to new members, either.
I was looking for image hosting sites that wouldn't require registration to simplify the process for my users, but all of the sites generated [URL=abc] sans "". |

| I've contacted Imageshack about possibly supplying a compatible link. |

| If they're really not that smart, consider adding Proeder's File Attachment mod. It gives them a paper clip to click on and attach pics. |

Ain't got nothing to do with "computer savvy" it's to do with common sense and the ability to read help and FAQ files which seems to me to be a pretty consistent way to pass the info on to new members.
With the way Snitz parses forum code, it is not possible to use the [url] tag without the quotations.

"Although the basic tags of BBCode are similar in most internet forum software, there are many variants." |
