Forums
I added a new module last night to the site for code. So to add code to your post make sure you are using the text format Plain text and place your code between the and the code will be formatted.

Hi Brian,
I tried to use the code-tag and Text format Plain text
<code> 'some code </code>
and the code was only grey.
Then I examined the page source code and found out that your posted codes also use the tags <pre></pre>

it again was only was grey.
So can you please explain what's your secret to post colored code examples?
