I decreased the size of the text in my signature. (I understand that it is mandatory, not to show it bigger than normal).
As a result, the BBCode does not operate any more.

It is strange: I enabled BBCode, but it is disabled in the signature.

BBCode is OFF


In the message itself, it works fine:

I believe all links have been disabled in signatures. You can still post them, but they have been disabled. I am not sure about the other BBC codes though.

I have disabled everything but plain text in signatures. It helps to deter spammers and makes signatures less annoying.

What I wrote is only text. It worked perfectly before I decreased the size of my text. (I juste replaced the 5 in [size =150], by a 0 -> [size =100].)
There is no hyperlink in it.

NO BBCode works in signatures, regardless of what setting you have. I have set it that way as a system-wide setting that overrides any individual user's settings.

Personally, I am disappointed by this measure.
No www, no link in signature - I think it isn't very attractive for regular contributors who have big sites too...

Unfortunately it was being abused.
