vB Code Guide examples are unclear

[Blue_Jeans]

Do typos and logic errors belong in the bug-report forums?

In the vB Code Guide thread, the example code provided does not always reflect the example code posted.

For example, in the box tag section, the example uses the code [box=Title]Content[/box], but the example displays like this:

This is where the content of your box will go.

Shouldn't the example code read [box=Box Title]This is where the content of your box will go.[/box]?

The example doesn't always need to fit perfectly like that, but yes, I suppose your right.

I don't mind though, it's not like it's that hard to understand either way.

edit: I think they only show the box as an example of what it would look like (versus a table etc.)...It doesn't necessarily have to have the same info as the code, as they're two different things (the actual code and an example).

Well, if you know the definition of title and content it should be obvious enough. Also, both words are used in the respective areas of the example. Still, I suppose you're right.

That page is pretty much a big mess.

Most (if not all) of it is automatically generated based on what vB codes there are, I think.

Yeah, it is. But you can change the examples and everything in the ACP.

The example for point doesn't even display... Don't get me wrong, it technically works, but nothing gets displayed. It just isn't very logical at first.

I'm just trying to help the good old hive out.

I've never actually seen that one before. This is the one I was thinking of: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/misc.php?do=bbcode
