Space Commander Travis Posted April 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Is there any way of altering the smilie codes so that ( doesn't come up as the smilie face wearing shades, but simply as ( b ) in brackets? Very often one can be writing something that addresses several points, in the form (a), ( b ), © and so on, and for ( b ) to come up as ( rather diminishes the effect one may wish for. I know you can untick the 'Enable emoticons' box, but you might want to still use smilies in the post, just not necessarily when you want ( b ). Could it not be possible to change the code so that ( is represented by something else, thereby avoiding a small amount of confusion? * You could add to that © as well, perhaps, so that it comes up as ( c ) rather than ©. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saru Posted April 14, 2013 #2 Share Posted April 14, 2013 It isn't practical to change that as it would break that emoticon in every post in which it's been used before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mentalcase Posted April 14, 2013 #3 Share Posted April 14, 2013 There is a better way to do it by using bullet or number lists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waspie_Dwarf Posted April 27, 2013 #5 Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) There is a better way to do it by using bullet or number lists. And you can still use letters if you like [List=A][/list] Thing Another thing More things [List=a][/list] Stuff More stuff Yet more stuff Or even Roman numerals [List=I][/list] 1 2 3 4 5 [List=i][/list] 1 2 3 4 5 Edited April 27, 2013 by Waspie_Dwarf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExpandMyMind Posted April 27, 2013 #6 Share Posted April 27, 2013 It isn't practical to change that as it would break that emoticon in every post in which it's been used before. To be fair, most of them have probably been put in there by mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
