Thank you for clarifying 🙂 Since the prompt indicates that BBCode can be entered, I just assumed that the new composer would accept it, so apologies for the mistake there!

I can say from testing on my own site and the boards here, however, underline is definitely converted by the new composer. If I start typing

```plaintext
[u]

```

It is automatically converted to underlined text by the new composer. I guess this is not the intended behaviour after all?
