support for phpBB's bbcode uuid

[Dahie]

Hi Jarrett,

For context, I'm writing an export tool for a phpBB forum to static markdown files. For that I'm slowly trying to catch most bbcode syntax cases that I find on the way. Some I deal in my exporter, some have there place here in the gem.

I found one thing today, I'm not entirely sure where to place.

in usual bbcode an image is described as [img]url[/url]. phpBB3 introduced the bbcode uuid that belongs to a post and helps to group images per post. It is stored in code as [img:fpbxmhnv]url[\img:fpbxmhnv]. More Background
This is not part of any bbcode specification or documentation and thus I wonder if the gem should support it, of if my exporter should deal with it by cleaning it before passing it to rbbcode gem.

What do you think?

I think we can support it easily enough. What should RbbCode emit when it hits the UID? Just ignore it?

Yes, ignoring is fine, it's a phpBB internal value. Am 2020-06-25 14:30, schrieb jarrett:

Oh, I just found that the URL and quote-tag can have the same. Example:

[url:3u958i1j]url[/url:3u958i1j]
[url=url:1unxtn0f]Text[/url:1unxtn0f]
