Embed Tag

What's this [embed]...[/embed] tag @/df seems to have discovered HERE? It's not listed in the BB Help page.

Is it new? How did you know about it? I wonder what other undocumented/undiscovered formatting tags there might be.

I can't find any mention of it on the XenForo or bbcode sites. My guess is that just translates to the html embed tag. Does that mean you can put square brackets around any html tag that isn't available in bbcode and it works?

Edit: As the next post shows my search of the sites mentioned wasn't good enough!

I didn't either.

And, of course, media items and albums which are mostly the same as they were previously with the existing [GALLERY] tag:

GALLERY tag??!

Perhaps AF didn't install it, or didn't enable it.
