Why does PHPBB forums not allow centering in posts?

[LCCEnterprise]

This is a question that many are wondering..

Why can't we center things in our posts like.

There is just no center BBCode included by default. You can create one in the Admin Panel -> Posting -> Custom BBCodes if you want one.

[LCCEnterprise]

Alright, and how would it be done?

Sorry if I sound like a noob, Just not to familiar with the new bbcode system

[bolverk]

You can, just add a custom BBCode, ACP -> Posting -> BBcodes -> Add

BBCode:

Code: Select all

    [center]{TEXT}[/center]

HTML replacement:

Code: Select all

    <div style="text-align:center;">{TEXT}</div>

Thank you.

BUMP!

Try this:

BBCode

Code: Select all

[center]{TEXT}[/center]

HTML replacement

Code: Select all

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">
<tr>
<td>{TEXT}</td>
</tr>
</table>

Works on all my boards.... can you post the code exactly as you have entered it in the custom bbcode page and then in a codebox the text of a post where you tried to use the bbcode?

[color=#FF0000][b]WINNERS WILL BE REQUIRED TO GIVE A VALID ADDRESS TO RECEIVE THE PRIZES, IF THEY ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION IT WILL GO TO THE RUNNER UP.[/b][/color][/center]

The tournament will be a One vs. One in Counter-Strike: Source, the servers are going to be provided by DSi Gaming and around 8 servers will be supplied for the match, the more sign ups we will look into more servers and if needed we will bring another sponsor to the plate. The servers will be located in Atlanta, Georgia. The rules will be pretty basic, no weapons are restricted and players will play until the score reaches 16 (The team score, 8 rounds on each side). The maps played will be entirely customized for One vs. One play and will not be scrubbish maps, the maps will all be very simple and look legit, some practice will be allowed on the maps a hour or more before the maps launch on our public server. The configuration will be the same configuration used in CAL with a few modifications - For instance, you will start with $16,000 and the freezetime will be cut in 1/4th. Players will be required to use Ventrilo for it will be the primary area for match-making. The tournament will be run with a double elimination ladder, meaning if you lose twice - You're out. More information will be released as it comes but this pretty much sums it all up.

[b][color=#FF0000]*UPDATE*[/color][/b]
The official map of the tournament will be vs_powerplant which is a epidemic custom map, vs_ maps or "versus" maps are maps specially designed for one vs. one (or two vs. two even) matches. They are particularly smaller than official Counter-Strike maps and have one bomb site with 2-3 entrances and a few vantage points for defending. vs_powerplant is themed to be a run down Power Plant that terrorists are attempting to blow up specifically to destroy the city that surrounds it. The map is professionally designed for 1 vs. 1 specifically for this tournament.

Some screenshots of the unfinished map as of now:
