I wrote the code text in bold but it doesn´t happen anything, the text is the same, does it have to stay in this way or do I have to do something else so the code works?

The code worked here. If you're not sure how to get it to work, just practice in this thread until you're comfortable with it. :tiphat:

I get it now. Thanks for the tip.

Can you please explain it to me? It seems that there are a lot of people having the same problem.

The first post explains it, and the thread itself is for practicing it. The reason you see a lot of posts saying "I don't get it" is because those members typically haven't actually tried to do it, or haven't posted any of their attempts, so they fail to see what they're doing that makes it not work.

A good idea is to quote a successful post and look at how the code appears before submitting.
You can also look up other explanations for how to use BBCode. You can find them online, and they may help those members who can't get it from this thread. :tiphat:

The BBCode shortcuts haven't been added to the reviewing process yet, so you need to manually type them in. :tiphat:
