XF 1.4 How to Add Color to Text within Code Tags

[Amaury]

I often see Jake Bunce make posts like this, telling people to add the code in red/blue. However, every time I've tried, including just now, I cannot get it work and the color BB code just gets removed after submitting the post.

Something in red

You can see how he does it if you quote his post and then look at it in the BB Code Editor. It's something I didn't realise you could do until I looked at it a few weeks ago.

Basically, rather than using [CODE][/CODE], you use [CODE=rich][/CODE], then you simply colour the test you want in blue/red/whatever.

Put code=rich for the opening tag

I'm surprised that it isn't mentioned in the BB Codes part of the Help section.

Thanks, @MattW and Martok!

I'm having way too many derp moments.
