What is BBCode?
BBCode (Bulletin Board Code) is a lightweight markup language used in many forums and message boards. It uses tags like [b] and [/b] instead of HTML’s angle brackets.
Why use BBCode instead of HTML?
BBCode is safer for user-generated content since it doesn’t allow arbitrary HTML/JavaScript execution. It’s commonly used in forums to let users format posts without security risks.
Can I convert HTML back to BBCode?
This tool is designed for BBCode to HTML conversion only. For reverse conversion, you would need a different tool.
Does this handle nested BBCode tags?
Yes. The converter properly handles nested tags like [b][i]bold and italic[/i][/b], converting them to correct HTML structure.
What happens if I have malformed BBCode?
The tool does its best to parse and convert what it can. Unclosed or mismatched tags may render unpredictably, so always preview the output.
Can I customize the HTML output?
The tool generates standard semantic HTML. You can modify the output after conversion to add custom classes or attributes as needed.
