Hello,

I am talking about adding an opt-in for in Classified or WSO thread. I think its do able by some coding. But before I mess around this I wanna know is it allow to do or not? If allowed then I will try to see if its 100% doable.

    It's not possible.

    BB code doesn't allow that type of stuff.

    Your only option is to link to an external form hosted outside of this forum.

      I thought it would be possible because there I see some Icon in text editor.. These Icons called wrap PHP tags, and wrap html tags... So, isn't possible to write HTML code in that and getting the form via iframe may be?

    PHP Code:
    No, because it's not rendering the code... It's just showing it as a quote...

      The whole point of BB code is that it limits what people can do. It doesn't allow scripts to run, it doesn't allow things like iframes or forms. Can you imagine the mess this forum would be in if all of those things were allowed inside of posts? People would be trying every trick in the book. Then there would be people injecting virus attacks and a whole host of stuff.

      That's why BB code is used in places like forums so it gives users the ability to have some control over what they post BUT it limits a lot of the freedom that regular HTML gives you... for a very good reason.
