Un-Stickied because this solution is not applicable anymore.

And, if you were wondering how I found this, I go to google.ca and punched in "phpbb quote not working" and pressed "I'm Feeling Lucky." And there is the solution, In plain view! Actually, this is the easy way to fix this. They say something about modding files and adding strings of code and that and that... I just skipped that and found the easy way.

P.S: I'll sticky this if I could... It's the fix!

Good find. I'll still fix any quotes with errors in them.

Well, let me see...

My Youtube Page

EDIT: Nope... URL embeds still work! If you disable BBCode... That will stop it.

EDIT 2: It's not like something can be affected by turning off the HTML. SpyroForum operates with BBCode, and HTML is only used to add special things I don't even see here. And if something *does* affect your post, it's easy to flick the switch temporarily for a single post, isn't it?

Nice find Doppel!!!

I have one question though. What else is affected when turning off the HTML radio button? Would posting links not work anymore or something?

(Sorry for the double post, admins, just testing this another way...)

You can opt for a "perma-fix" by opening up your profile and doing this...

And, yup... That automatically ticks off that box each and everytime you post... FOREVER!. Now "Disable HTML" will be on and stay on and we can quit bugging SpyroRocks.
