Hell have typed the text bold on the rating of the book but it's still saying that rate the book before you submit it.
Though have rate the book in text bold and it has even shown that it is in text bold.

Regular Text. Text in Italic. Regular Text. I don't understand how to make it italic in review. Buttons aren't there.

Make sure you have the rating in the correct format. The formatting if the rating is very strict, and deviating from it will result in this message.

Also, make sure to close the code. If you don't, your whole text from that point on will be bolded. :tiphat:

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

CODE: SELECT ALL

Regular text. Text you want
The first post of this thread explains it, and the thread itself is for you to practice it. :tiphat:

Also, remember to close the code. If you don't, your whole text from that point on will be italicized.

The BBCode shortcuts have not been added to the new submission form yet. You will need to add them manually. :tiphat:

Make sure to close the code. The text needs to be sandwiched between the opening code:

Code: Select all

[i]
[b]
And so on.
And the closing code:

Code: Select all

[/i]
[/b]
And so on.

If not, the rest of your text is affected. :tiphat:
