Previously this worked fine and showed the item name in chartreuse inside brackets. Now for some reason it's all borked.

Chartreuse]Item Name[/Chartreuse

[ Item Name ]

It appears putting a space inbetween the double brackets solves the problem as a temp fix.. Has there been some crossing of the wiki tag functions with the forum tag functions or something?

Yeah. You can use some wiki tags in forum posts. So if the parser sees [ [ text ] ] (minus the spaces between brackets) it treats it like a wiki link.

When did this start? :/ Wasn't like that when I last edited that forum thread.

I also noticed this wasn't working for me the other day:

[link=http://ffxi.allakhazam.com wrote:
Link in quoted by[/link]]I hope it works this time. It used to work.



Edit: Yeah, it doesn't work. I really think it should be fixed, or I should be told what I'm doing wrong... Because I liked being able to have a link in the quoted by message...

To be honest, I don't really remember. Seems like it was a change that went into place a little before I became an admin.
