BB Code in Labels Not Rendering

Hi, I’ve noticed an issue with labels when using BB Code in the label title.

For example, I have the title set as: [b][color=#FF0000]LIVE[/color][/b]

The label colour itself works correctly, but the BB Code is displayed as text instead of being rendered.

For example, it shows: [b][color=#FF0000]LIVE[/color][/b]

instead of:

LIVE

I’ve also tried it on the default ForumSpark theme, and it does exactly the same thing, so it doesn’t seem to be related to my custom theme or CSS.

The label settings say: The text shown on the label. BB Code is allowed.

So I’m wondering if BB Code is currently not being parsed when labels are displayed, or if there is something else needed to make it work.

The label setting text is a leftover from v1 that I forgot to take out. BBCode has been transitioning out for a while, and we don’t really plan on adding it back. Hence why we added a customizer instead.

You could further enhance it by adding css in your theme. But for labels, I recommend keeping them simple.
