Font Size Abuse - limit size bbcode

[oldengine]

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=216827&highlight=maximum+font+size

The earlier versions on this forum are full of requests to limit font sizes, but no one has a good answer. I have limited the dropdown size in the editor, but users can still enter the bbcode manually [ size = ].

Surely there must be a solution to this problem, but I've looked here and on vbulletin.org without results. The size command must be interpreted somewhere. Can't we simply put a cap on it?

You can remove the sizes from the drop down under Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Toolbar Menu Options (on All Style Options dropdown).

However you can't stop them from using it manually without a code modification. The size code simply uses predefined values present in HTML.

Just disable it in your Admin CP

Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> BB Code Settings -> Allow Size BB Code -> unchecked

I don't want to disable it. I want to limit it so that the 5, 6 and 7 sizes simply aren't there. I have already removed those sizes from the drop down editor, but wiseacres know they can use the SIZE bbs code.

Short of yanking them from vbulletin_textedit.js there must be a simple way of handling this in a template? Yes, I've checked vbulletin.org.

Hacking vbulletin_textedit.js is a great way to accomplish what you want to do. Just add a line of code that substitutes 5, 6 and 7 sizes with the default size.

Very carefully, on my test forum.

Wayne, how about moving this to the suggestions forum? I think that properly limiting it is really something that should have been implemented ages ago. Right now the only practical solution is to either turn it off completely or constantly deal with idiots abusing it. At least allowing for basic limiting of it to a certain size only should be possible. The same goes for colours...

Fine by me to move it. Thanks.
