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:

Show

This text is hidden by default. Clicking the "Show" button will expand the block.

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:

Custom title

This text is hidden by default. Clicking the "Show" button will expand the block.

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
