Relea\*\*&S\*\*
Should return bold for the "&S"
I have to put a space before & "Relea **&S**" for it to work.
Can I not bold each individual letter.
This is important for me. I'm editing my beatport starting post and want to highlight each letter like so. See it encounters problems when there's no space prior to the bold syntax.

Use Markdown, BBCode, or HTML to format.

HTML text doesn't work with colour. (Had to put these in block code for you to see exact text)

Nor does BBCODE with colour.
```
Red text and blue text!
```
Maybe this is disabled?

Yes, I've did some further research and it doesn't seem to be possible out of the box.
There is a dedicated plugin for BBCode colors, but as I'm not a big fan of color formatting, I'd kindly ask you to use standard formatting options first.

Yeah, I just done my starting post for beatport scripts as I updated them.
You're `110%` correct here. I see your point, looks slicker when you think about it.
