Scrolling Marquee Formatting

by gulfcoasttundras October 21st 2009, 8:10 pm

I searched for this issue and found nothing.... please move to correct section if I posted in the wrong place -

I noticed that when you create an anouncement for the scrolling marquee you are able to change the format i.e., Bold, Underlined, Italics, Size, Font Style, etc. Why doesnt the scrolling marquee actually change on the page of my forum?

has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks

It generally changes.

Do you have html enabled on your forum?

What code did you use?

by gulfcoasttundras October 22nd 2009, 5:28 pm

i didnt use a "code" I changed it in WYSIWYG mode but the html under the messaging section in that link you posted was checked "yes to allow html code"

I also made sure that my profile was allowing html code to be displayed.

So you need the html code for it? Tell me the details, i will give you the code.

by gulfcoasttundras October 27th 2009, 6:30 pm

I dont need the code.... what I was saying in the OP is that there is the WYSIWYG editor for the Scrolling Marquee but when you setup the characteristics of what you want it to look like and click save.... then go to look at it on my site it doesnt look any different
