There's a maximum size limit on the size BBCode.

This is size 150:
TEST

It is named as large. Above that there is huge (with a value of 200). So it isn't above the size limit.

i believe you run beta-5, in which size was not yet in % (30-200 or so) but rather in px (1-28 or so).
you want to set , not .

i may be wrong, of course, but i think this is the case.
have a good day.

you can set the max size in the ACP, I think it's board settings or features… anyways, have a look around, it's somewhere in the ACP.

Still no good. Having same problem in subsilver2 also, so there has to be something else..And yes i am using b5, but i don't use it live, testing it local for now..
so, is this a problem known to phpbb team, or is this only the b5 syndrome.. :mrgreen:

i will try one more time, as slowly and clearly as i can:
0) there is no known problem with the [size] bbcode. the problem is the way you use it (see below).
1) it has nothing to do with prosilver or subsilver. it has to do with the way size bbcode is interpreted.
2) some time after beta-5 came out, the devs had switched from pixel-size interpretation of the [size] bbcode to percent based interpretation.
3) your site is beta-5, so in your site you should still use pixels, (as in ), and not percent (as in ).
in your site, would be interpreted as 200 pixels, which is more than 1/4 the screen using the most common resolution.
phpbb does not allow such huge characters. iirc, the maximum size allowed was 28.
4)i hope it helps.
