How do you tag a card from a core set with a year? i.e. Lightning Bolt I've tried "M11," "Magic 2011," "Magic 2011(M11)," "Magic: the Gathering Core Set-2011" and "Magic: the Gathering- 2011." I've had the same problem with Scooze, and Grim Lavamancer (M12).

Is it weird Affinity was not my first constructed deck?
How do you tag a card from a core set with a year? i.e. Lightning Bolt I've tried "M11," "Magic 2011," "Magic 2011(M11)," "Magic: the Gathering Core Set-2011" and "Magic: the Gathering- 2011." I've had the same problem with Scooze, and Grim Lavamancer (M12).
This is an admitted flaw with our current database system. You have to spell the set name exactly as it is in the card database. For example:
[card]Scavenging Ooze|Magic: The Gathering-Commander[/card] = Scavenging Ooze
(though you seem to be aware of this already)
Additionally, because of the name the new Core Sets have been given in the database (for example: "Magic 2011 (M11)"), you can't make the cardtags refer to those at all, as far as I know. In an optimal world, each set should have multiple different names that each will get you to the correct card. For example, for M11, the optimal thing would be to have Magic 2011, M11, etc, all be interchangeable. This is something we're looking into, and we've reported it to the owners as a desirable feature. We'd also like it to be possible to have the cardtags refer to a specific verion of a card, for example the Wolf version of Hymn to Tourach.

Keep in mind that if you choose this option the width of your screen will determine how many boxes fit side by side. For instance, on my normal laptop six boxes side by side mimicking a deck list fit perfectly. However, on my desktop widescreen monitor I have room for a few more boxes, and when I look at the post on my phone it will only fit four boxes and the remaining two are underneath.

You can also use [boxvar]-tags to force the box tags to be of a certain width, potentially making them narrow enough to fit on a smaller screen.
What card database? I don't know the codewords for all the sets.
Each card we input into our database has a set name attached to it. So when you want to use a card tag and specify an exact version of a card, you have to use the cardname|set format. For most sets this is simply the set name, but core sets and supplemental sets sometimes are tricky. It is a fix we are working with Curse to implement, but currently that request is still in open ticket status.
[box=green]Hey, this is a box. [color=red]This text is red.[/color][/box]
Hey, this is a box. This text is red.
The best I can come up with changing text within a box. I dont know of a way to change the color of the box outline or the background color within the box. As you can see I tried changing the color of the box to green and its just kind of ignoring it.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.
Ok, I saw someone who used a quote tag instead of a box and though that is just a gray background it's probably the closest I can get to the effect I wanted.
Hey I'm having a hard time getting spoiler tags to wokr in my sig. Could some one kindly take a look? I'm trying to make both quotes into spoilers to save space.

You've got your [/spoiler] tag before the [spoiler] and accompanying quote.
Keep in mind that we removed scrolling sigs a while back so there is a chance that even fixing your spoiler tag could still result in some of your signature being cut off.
What tokens can be displayed with card tages. Some, like Goblin ([card]Goblin[/card]) work, but others like Hellion ([card]Hellion[/card]) don't. Is it based on tokens that were included in the duel deck anthology, because, at first glance it kind of looks like that's the case.
Also, is there a way to link to a specific version of a token? Like Goblin, but with [card]Goblin|Magic Origins[/card], or something similar to get the specified version? This is probably more important for things like Elemental, where the different versions have different power, toughness and abilities.

Hi! Do you know if cards from From the Vault: Annihilation work?
Example: I was trying to find the From the Vault: Annihilation artwork for Living Death using [c]Living Death|From the Vault: Annihilation[/c], but it won't work.

You have it right. Apparently the set is screwed up on the database in that most of the FTV Annihilation cards are missing. Our tech should hopefully be on it soon and hopefully it should be updated yet today.
