Question about BB Code for Text Background Color

[GrumpyOldMan]

Does the forum have support for text background color?

I know I can change the text color using [COLOR=red]red[/COLOR]. Doing some Google searches, it appears that some forums support BB Code [BGCOLOR=...].

I also read the following somewhere, but I have no idea if it's relevant to this forum's software or not:

Go to Admin CP -> Custom BBCode -> Add New BBCode

Name: Background Color
Tag: bgcolor
Replacement: <span style="background-color:{option}">{param}</span>
Example: [bgcolor=yellow]Yellow Background[/bgcolor]
Description: This will allow you to add a color background to your text. Use responsibly
Use {option}: Yes.

Thanks in advance.

No, it's not an option that's made available here; you can only change the color of the text itself.

Thanks. I know it's not high-priority, but it's something I'd definitely use. I've been posting images from my GranTracker program, like this:

But now I've created an option to be able to post the same information in a BBCode table, like this:

But without the colored backgrounds, it doesn't convey the same information at a glance.

So that's why I want it. But it's cool if you can't or don't want to add the feature. I just wanted you to know why I wanted it.

Thanks!

And he would not be the only one now, to wish for back ground color for text here.

this looks pretty much color correct in dark mode but light mode does not.

Prize A
Prize B
Prize C

If we could get it working so the background of that text was the same color as dark mode's, SNAIL would use it every week.
