Including code in a post

Hi,
Was wondering if there was a way to include bb code tags in a post and have them appear as required so as I can leave an instructional post on how to use them?
I'd like to sticky a post on how to include images, at bold and or underlined text, links etc but they never seem to show up properly.
Is there a codebox or something to do it in?

I hope I have explained that properly.

It seems I didn't understand.

If you would like to leave kind of instructions on how to use BB codes in the place where TEXTAREA is located (message form), then just edit templates/main_post_form.html and put the stuff you need in the HTML format there.

Thanks Paul.

I spend so much time looking for the answers here myself and always end up in the trash.

If your posts are in this forum, that only means they are incompatible with our posting rules which it seems you don't read before making a post.

However please note that we do not delete them (at the time we should) but still leave the right to get an answer if somebody will work it out for you. That's why they are not REMOVED but in THIS forum.
