post codei just use threein a row, paste my code, and again use three(I see now that only one ` is needed…) -
@quotschmacher I actually tried using the three back ticks when I first posted, but I didn’t see the corresponding effect in the live preview.
‘’‘

@mr_smith Unfortunately, the code button plugin does not work with recent versions of node-BB as far as I can see.

@gleno0h Thanks. Unfortunately, this one is not discovered by the plugin manager. It can be installed from the command line though. I’ll give it a try in the coming days

@mwittig did you have time to try this out?

@gleno0h Yes, I tried, but it didn’t work out. The plugin is outdated anyway.
