XF 2.2 Is code now allowed in a users post?

[Spartan]

How do I stop this?

It's a standard editor function.

There is no way of disabling it.

So users can insert and code?

Yes, it’s been this way since the beginning. The code is not executable though.

Thank you. I'm curious how this is different than just posting the code? What's the purpose ?

The purpose is to display stylised code in text form.

It doesn't cause any issues.

When it says code, it means how it's formatting the display of the item, and nothing more (or less). For instance, if I wanted to give another user an example of how to do a Mysql dump, I would surround it with "code" tags to it formats the same way it would in an ssh shell:

mysqldump --opt -utheusername -pthepassword thedatabase | gzip -c > thedatabase.sql.gz

With those code tags, I can prevent bbcodes from rendering. So if I wanted to let a user know how to use the bold bbcode, I can do this:
