    Just updated Feb thread, I managed (just!) to get to target, March is going to be super tough, but that's what I need, today will get us off the mark as I'm staying home working on my side hustle

    (does anyone know how to change size and colour of text on here yet? When I type in the code it doesn't work like the old one?)

    TrushTush, there's a dropdown menu for size, six buttons along on the toolbar above where you post comments - it's a hard return symbol. It only offers a couple of proper options though. Colour has to be done using HTML code and is a real faff - if you have to edit your comment you basically have to delete the whole thing and do it again, otherwise the colour tags will vanish! Hoping they automate it at some point soon.

    neither HTML nor IMG coding are working for me at all, it's really frustrating as IMG coding is working in my signature, but not in the threads,
    I do hope they fix it soon, it may seem a little issue but I know for those of you running these threads it can really help.

    Are you able to show me the exact code you used in your OP to make the code red? just add a random space in the code so it doesn't actually complete the action. (sorry to be a pain) xx

    TrushTush, when you post, there is a basic screen where you can use the toolbar to make text bold etc, but if you want to use html you have to go into html mode, which is the final button on the tool bar - the two chevrons with the forward slash between them - press that and all the other options disappear and the html you enter will work.
    I use the code below for items in the targets list. Probably the only bit you would need would be <font color="red"></color> but I'm not sure:
    <p></p><div class="post-float-left"><b>TrushTush <font color="red">25</color></b></div><span>
    <p></p><br>

    The website itself sticks in loads of <span> tags ... not sure what they are for. The annoying thing with using the colour tags is if you want to edit you will have to delete and put the whole thing in again. The site gets rid of the colour tags if you just edit!
