Wiki Markup

Currently supported markup is listed below. This page is written entirely in native markup.

Unlike most wiki's, this software uses much simpler and easier to read markup, based on UBB forum markup / simple HTML.

Notes:

• Either [ ] or < > may be used when specifying tags (e.g. [b] or <b>), this allows compliance with HTML markup, for those who find it more familiar.

• When using HTML style markup, you cannot insert additional parameters (e.g. <table> is permitted, but <table background="blue"> will not work unless Advanced HTML support has been enabled by the site admin).

• Tags will be ignored (and just printed as they are) if you put a ! symbol in front of the tag name, useful if you are writing documentation on how to use wiki markup or display HTML on a page.

Shown here is the best item in the game. Bonus points if you know why it's the best.


TODO:

 • Auto-indenting of text when using simple bullet points.

 • Alternative, simple table markup format (e.g. CSV based).

 • Font styling with [color=red][/color] and [size=18][/size] tags.

 • BUG: Extra return character currently inserted after [h1] / [h2] / [hr] (etc) - to be fixed.

 • Add historical views of pages (and a 'revert' mechanism) and history.

 • Add file upload mechanism (e.g. for Gallery)

 • Add automatic 'table of contents' when there are multiple headings.

 • Breadcrumb Trail

 • Remember current page when logging on.

Please add any additional features desired to this list.
