I’m using RedCloth for a forum type app. I want users to have control
over the look of their posts, but within limits. For example, I don’t
want them to be able to include images or use header tags. The RedCloth
documentation is pretty thin and I don’t feel it’s very explanatory.
I’m wondering if there’s any easy way to do this? Or do I have to make
my own markup from scratch? I’m trying to avoid this at all costs,
because I suck at regex. I also feel that duplicating the functions of
already-existent code is kind of stupid.

Well, you’ll probably have to use regexs since I don’t know if there’s a
way to limit tags in Redcloth. But it’s probably simply a matter of
doing /\sh[0-5]\s// and similar before saving their posts.

Also remember that I don’t believe either RedCloth nor BlueCloth
remove HTML tags from input. So you would always have to parse the
data using regexp anyway to remove that.

RedCloth can remove HTML tags from the original input. I can also
easily do this with h() before or after saving to the database.
My bad. Didn’t know about that extra feature.
