Paragraphs
Paragraphs are separated by blank lines.
A single line break inside a paragraph
creates a new line
instead of a new paragraph.
Headers
Use h4. text
, h5. text
, or h6. text
to create a header:
h4. Header
h5. Header
h6. Header
Quotes
[quote] Chiyo-dad said: I wish I were a bird. [/quote]
Becomes:
Chiyo-dad said:
I wish I were a bird.
Lists
Start a line with an '*' to make a list:
* Item 1 * Item 2 ** Item 2.a ** Item 2.b * Item 3
Becomes:
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 2.a
- Item 2.b
- Item 3
Note: Lists need to be separated from other text with a blank line, otherwise the other text will become part of the list.
Expands
Use [expand]
to create collapsible blocks of text:
[expand] Text that is hidden by default. Click the "Show" button to expand the block and make the text visible. [/expand]
Becomes:
Use [expand=Custom title]
to add a custom title:
[expand=Custom title] This text is hidden by default. Clicking the "Show" button will expand the block. [/expand]
Becomes:
Tables
Use HTML table tags to make a table:
[table] [thead] [tr] [th]A[/th] [th]B[/th] [th]C[/th] [/tr] [/thead] [tbody] [tr] [td]1[/td] [td]2[/td] [td]3[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]4[/td] [td]5[/td] [td]6[/td] [/tr] [/tbody] [/table]
Becomes:
A | B | C |
---|---|---|
1 | 2 | 3 |
4 | 5 | 6 |
