New Forum BBCodes

We are pleased to present three brand new BBCodes for your enjoyment! Usable anywhere on the forums, these BBCodes allow you to link items, monsters and even worn item sets from Tip.It's databases. The information will appear right in your post! All images can be hovered to show the stats of the linked object. All images can be double clicked on to take you to the relevant page on the website. Clicking on the link does the same.

Items
You can link any item and have it appear inline in your post. For example I personally loved my Loading Item Information... to death (literally, it lost it's Loading Item Information... far too many times to count). But since Jagex released the Loading Item Information... I felt complled to move on to the more efficient of the two. And as much as I miss my Loading Item Information..., the Loading Item Information... is pretty darn good.

Syntax: [item=id] The id can be found in the URL on the item in the items database. For example in http://open.tip.it/items/view/3249-beer, the id would be 3249
Example: [item=3249] will become Beer.

Monsters
You can also link any monster in the same manner. For example, which is more profitable? Loading Monster Information... or Loading Monster Information...s?

Syntax: [monster=id] The id can be found in the URL on the item in the bestiary. For example in http://open.tip.it/bestiary/view/89-melzar-the-mad, the id would be 89
Example: [monster=89] will become Melzar the Mad.

Sets

Complete item sets my also be shown. For example:

Loading Item Set Information...

Or, because I can (this is intentional):

Loading Item Set Information...

Syntax: [set=aura:id,head:id,cape:id,neck:id,quiver:id,weapon:id,body:id,shield:id,legs:id,gloves:id,boots:id,ring:id] You can omit any slot you want and it will appear blank.
Example: [set=aura:19,head:19,cape:19,neck:19,quiver:19,weapon:19,body:19,shield:19,legs:19,gloves:19,boots:19,ring:19] will become a set with pitta bread in every slot.

Great job

[Gradeskip]

Ooohh cool!

[Danqazmlp]

Sounds great, will be incredibly useful for those creating guides and the such.

P.s Putting this in G.D actually worked well as an announcement for it as it would really get the word around quickly.

[ForsakenMage]

Dis is so pretty! ^.^

[Octarine19]

These are brilliant Loading Item Information... for the both of you!

[Danqazmlp]

A quick small suggestion, although not sure where to put this as it is related though. Would it be possible to have the same system for the equipment slots available for the regular inventory page? So you could both show for example the equipment taken to a boss, as well as the inventory?

[Bows]

That's pretty bad ass. Great job, Crew!

[Zokot]

Sweet!

If you want to provide people with in inventory for, say, a boss guide. Just make a list of items with the [item] tag.

This is pretty cool actually. I remember archaically hotlinking pictures to items when I first signed up lol.
Is this feature going to be added as a button?
Will the Amulet of Fury (OR) be added to the items database so I can quicklink it??

[Lokie]

Amazing. I may not use this so often, but it's a very handy feature if I need to use it. Well done on the hard work.

Cheers to you. Loading Item Information...

[Fresi]

Would it be possible to get that added to the main sites guides 2?
edit: for inventory etz, i used to have problem spotting what pots where in inventory etz in monster hunting guides when i still lacked knowledge of items, sadly one now has all the info needed not to really need this function, but nice none the less

edi2: oh yeaaa, how about inventory? any plans on adding that?

Great work, ty

Loading Item Set Information...

[Randox]

Amazing work. I love it!

[obfuscator]

Excellent, nice work!

[Alg]

Oh, that's cool
Loading Item Information... for the crewbies.

[Zeno]

This may help me point out flaws when I can actually get some free time, life's been busy lately...

[K4ylan]

Awesome Loading Item Information...

[Gandorf61]

Wow, very cool feature for the forums. This will really bring the quality of help in the H&A forum to the next level if it's used frequently. Thanks for all the effort both of you put into this!

[D. V. Devnull]

Well done on adding this idea to the forums, Dudecrush8 and MageUK!

Only one thing to do now... Fix the syntax error on the example under "Monsters", because with how the following is...

...the result of...

[item=89]

...would come out to...

"Loading Item Information... "

...and not your desired result, which happens to be...

"Loading Monster Information... "

...instead. I don't think we want anyone mis-reading that?
