Requesting custom bbcode buttons

Post by Talia12 »

I want to add couple of buttons which are depicted in this screenshot:

They are the ones after the 'Normal' text box here, so how do I do it? Any help/support would be appreciated.

Most people use the advanced BBcode extension

For media things like youtube and twitter no BBcode is needed.

https://www.phpbb.com/extensions/installing/

phpBB uses extensions to add extra features. These can be added by uploading the correct folder to the correct location in the /ext folder on the server as explained on that link.

You then install it through the customise tab in the admin panel.
