Hey!
I've noticed some people have made use of text formatting in their bios and was just wondering how you guys do that? For example, I've found that manually typing in
[.u.r.l.] (link here) [./.u.r.l.]
works in bios (just added the dots in so it'll display), but trying to do hyperlinked text with
[.u.r.l.=.(link here).] (text here) [./u.r.l.]
does not work in bios. However, I have seen other users' profiles with hyperlinked text in them, so how did you guys manage to do that?
I've also noticed that any number I put into the size tag just ends up making the text in the tag smaller (it always looks about size 10 ish, regardless of how big I make the number in the tag). But I've seen some users make text larger in their bios so I know it's possible somehow haha.
Any insight into how tags work in bios would be much appreciated! I've tried doing "inspect" on the bios of users who've used interesting formatting, but that just gives me the html code it gets translated into, not the original characters they typed, and typing in the html myself doesn't do anything haha.
I have clearly put way too much thought into this. Somebody please put me out of my misery XD

I think it uses the same coding as the PMs, so you'll need to use urllink= instead of url= for it to work. The text size coding also goes by a 75% to 300% scale, so i think 100% is the default text size. Anything below 100 will decrease the size while anything above will increase it.
Previewing if it'll work in PMs before copying or saving it into the profile can be helpful.
I hope that helps.
