To bold and color text inside a code block in BBCode, you need to understand that the code tag is designed to display text in a monospaced font without applying any formatting such as bold or color. This means that any BBCode tags placed inside a code block will not be processed, and thus, you cannot directly apply formatting like bold or color within it.

However, if your goal is to show formatted text alongside code or to highlight specific parts of your code with colors or boldness, you can use a combination of BBCode tags outside the code block. Here’s how you can achieve this:

1. Use the code tag for the code itself: This will ensure that the code is displayed correctly.
2. Use other formatting tags outside the code block: You can place formatted text before or after the code block.

Example

If you want to show some code and also highlight certain keywords in bold and color, you would do it like this:

[b][color=red]Important Code:[/color][/b]
[code]
echo "Hello, World!";
[/code]

In this example:

• The phrase "Important Code:" will appear in bold and red.
• The actual code snippet will be displayed in a monospaced font without any additional formatting.

Summary

To summarize, while you cannot format text (like making it bold or changing its color) inside a code block using BBCode, you can format surrounding text outside of it. Thus, you cannot directly bold and color text inside a 'code block' but can format adjacent text instead.
