Notes

  • Only parses bbc tags which are not disabled in disabledBBC.
  • Also handles basic HTML, if enablePostHTML is on.
  • Caches the from/to replace regular expressions so as not to reload them every time a string is parsed.
  • Only parses smileys if smileys is true.
  • Does nothing if the enableBBC setting is off.
  • Applies the fixLongWords magic if the setting is set to on.
  • Uses the cache_id as a unique identifier to facilitate any caching it may do.
  • Returns the modified message.
