Links & Media

Tag	Example
`[url]…[/url]`	`[url]https://example.com[/url]`
`[url=link]label[/url]`	`[url=https://example.com]Click here[/url]`
`[img]…[/img]`	`[img]https://example.com/image.png[/img]`
`[img=description]…[/img]`	`[img=Moon over the Forge]https://example.com/image[/img]` Optional alt text, limited to 160 characters

[url] allows http:// and https://. [img] requires https:// and accepts external HTTPS hosts. File extensions and MIME types are not checked by Starforge. The remote server must return an image format supported by the reader's browser. Private and local addresses are blocked on both.

Lists

[list]
[*] First item
[*] Second item
[*] Third item
[/list]

First item
Second item
Third item

Use [list=1], [list=a], [list=A], [list=i], or [list=I] for numbered lists.

Pet Shortcodes

These are Starforge-specific shortcodes, not standard BBCode. They embed one of your own pets' images, linked to its profile page, looked up by pet ID. Only pets you own can be embedded this way: an ID for a pet you don't own is left as plain text. If the pet has no image yet, a plain text link is shown instead.

Tag	Size	Usage
`[[id]]`	Small (80px)	`[[42]]`
`[[[id]]]`	Large (200px)	`[[[42]]]`

Use the public Pet ID / Companion No. shown on your pet's page, which is also the number in its Barracks URL: e.g. /barracks/42/ → ID is 42. If the number doesn't exist or isn't one of your own pets, the shortcode is left as-is.
