# Does anyone here know how to convert html into bbcode for this forum and have it work? I messed up the code in one of my old posts and would like it back.

If you post an example of your code, I can try “diagnosing” it
actually I know this forum changed from span coding to div coding, so try replacing all the “span” with “div” and see if that works 👀

Thank you so much! I went back and edited the tags.
I didn’t know that they’d changed from span to div.
You’re a lifesaver! I thought the code was gonna be messed up forever 😃

This should work:

>
> Best HTML to BBCode Converter is Transformer Online Utility which converts Hyper Text Markup Language to Bulletin Board Code.

we’re a little bit behind on “cleaning up“ old threads lol. the community is not so crazy active as it used to be, and mods also don’t have as much time on their hands…but hey, every interaction is a good one so don’t worry about bringing back old posts 😃
