Here some help for editing bbCode text colors with friendica.

In the spoilers you'll find lot's of colors, their codes and also their human readable code names.

Actually this is some information I couldn't find in the friendica /help pages, only the example with the color red.

Maybe something we could add to those pages?

Since we simply pass the HTML values, I guess it should be enough to tell that we allow the known values, don't you think?
Not sure what you mean or what you are talking about.
🤔
@Michael Vogel @utopiArte would it make sense to also include a link to where that kind of stuff is defined, like W3C, to help those of us that aren't smart enough to know what "pass the html values" actually means?
That's what I meant.

Actually that's kind a difference between "customer service" and coder logic I guess.

When I started wondering:
"Are there more colors?"
"I have seen color codes and I guess they all apply but are there names for all or at least a lot of color codes?"

I had those "thoughts" because I'mm a little bit into coding because of experience with some phpBB boards and their setup. But common people have no clue I guess.

I had to start searching, testing and some how compiling the information found into a friendica bbCode human readable and easy to find and apply manner. and pinned hat you see in my notes.

So doing it for my own needs and having it already, taking the extra step to format and post it to the helpers forum was just some 5 to 15 minutes extra . Now it is most likely in a copy past format to:

Not doing it is obligating everyone who want's to get the best out of friendica to spend the same extra hour I had to spent to search for the info and sum it up for the bbCode case.

Companies have coding specialists, and public relations specialists, and consumer support teams ..

We exist because coders create software for their needs and see the world from their eyes.

I wonder if common users like @Barbara Elers have the notion, capabilities and breath to go all those extra miles or if it's more likely that they have skills they could and would love to add to our community but the coders world, language and perception create obstacles that prevent them from joining and creating a ever increasing vibrant community and use of friendica.

Actually I consider that in the /help section of every friendica node there should be a complete list like shown above so this information is at hand when people create a text.

I guess the place would be in the /help/BBCode page at the bottom before /help/BBCode#Special.

/help/BBCode#Inlinepage for description how to add color to a text

/help/BBCode#Colors for some basic examples or even better, the complete list.

As of now I found in a quick "bbcode" search in the wiki:
https://wiki.friendi.ca/docs/bbcode?s[]=bbcode

Not sure to what extent this information belongs there.
@utopiArte wow, nice.

That should be kept in the wiki and maybe also partly included in /help
@utopiArte Wow! Thanks a lot for your effort! I not only reshared your post for others to see, but I also stared it, so I can get back to it any time I want.

The Wiki is pretty poorly updated FWIW, I cannot see a way to create bulleted lists with BBCode - I have to use Markdown all the time.

/help/BBCode#Lists
@utopiArte Thanks again! Right, it seems like
[ul]
[li]item 1[/li]
[li]item 2[/li]
[/ul]

Does render as

  • item 1
  • item 2



But when typing [ul] it defaults to
[ul]
[*] 
[/ul]


Which renders lists as

  • [
] item 1
[
] item 2


Which is broken. Perhaps this should be raised as an issue on their GitHub, I think?
[ul]
  [*] First list element
  [*] Second list element

  • First list element
  • Second list element

@utopiArte Does https://tupambae.org/display/0ac89072-1965-c572-e847-92c297957495 look the same on your side as it does mine?

screenshot from libranet.de of the link described in same post showing that the bulleted list shows as expected

I suspect you and @Cătă have different versions of Friendica running on your instance. I I know libranet.de is usually on recent dev version, so you may need to request your admin to update.

I don't understand what your question/comment is about.

The comment or answer (and post) ID is on every node the same, we call that "perma" or "permanent link":
0ac89072-1965-c572-e847-92c297957495

Just click on the links and have a look.

..... https://libranet.de/display/0ac89072-1965-c572-e847-92c297957495
(short answer: yes)


In the case of post's that is even true for diaspora*:

https://pod.geraspora.de/posts/0ac89072-2065-c137-8f1c-70f353623703

The difference on diaspora is that they use the term posts instead of display:
.. https://tupambae.org/display/0ac89072-2065-c137-8f1c-70f353623703

What is your problem with the displayed list @Ji Fu ?

@Ji Fu I don't think there is a version problem. On @utopiArte's side lists seem to be displayed correctly when including an unordered list in a post, written with BBCode, like this:

[ul]
[*] item 1
[*] item 2
[/ul]


When I try to use this code myself, I get


  • [
] item 1
[
] item 2


Not sure if it is the case to you as well (since we are on the same server). But I alleviated this problem by using Markdown instead of BB Code for unordered lists. Fortunately, when a post is edited, these are displayed as

[ul]
[li]item 1[/li]
[li]item 2[/li] 
[/ul]


And I saw this behavior since 2 versions ago already, I think, so it's great. But when typing [ul] it still defaults to the [*] instead of [li][/li] for the list items.

Actually, you know what? I think I'll see on GitHub if there is any issue about this, and I'll raise this myself if it's not. :D
@Ji Fu @utopiArte update, I think I found the culprit for this. I had the Markdown add-on enabled. This is why, when typing the unordered list, the parser was interpreting only the * symbol instead of the BB Code.

Now, when I type the string, it defaults normally. Look:


  • item 1
  • item 2



Now I think whether I should still keep the Markdown add-on enabled after this or not, hmm...

Here you find this same post but on friendica 2021.01, it displays the same than over here. I saw Michael Vogel state that friendica transmits html so I guess this applies here to.
Even than, at some point this "issue" appeared, maybe when markdown was added, so from the publishing stand point there is a version this issue started.

This profile hasn't markdown enabled.
If the issue is because of markdown it's still a bug in my opinion.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but I guess we are also witnessing an error in the /help page discription, as it is [*] instead of [li], isn't it? If so this is also something for to mention or directly fix in the github repo I think.
If you go to github, I'm working on a bug report layout maybe it suits you (attention, this is bbcode!):
