    Hello,

    I just see in some posts that the text can be made bold, done in italics, underlined, etc.

    How does one do this? I see no options to do it. Is it something to do with amount of posts or length of time on the site or what?

    Thanks in advance.

    Jase

    There's buttons for them on the edit bar, though you may need to switch to advanced editor mode to see them.

    Alternately you could manually add the tags.

    Thanks, Spear. But there doesn't appear to be any editing bar at all when I go to post. I've changed the settings through my user control panel and everything, but there are still no buttons or anything to let me do it.

    Ah, your account is too new, you don't get many of the editing options. This will change in 5 days or so.

    You could manually add the tags still I believe e.g. [noparse] and [/noparse] to give bold text.
