Wikka Formatting Guide

Escaping Markup

Anything between 2 sets of double-quotes is not formatted. This is the equivalent of escaping a character(s):

In this case, the second set of ** (escaped) stars will be ignored, i.e., will not terminate the bold markup.

You can also use double-quote escaping to avoid linking of CamelCase words, e.g.

1. Text Formatting

Elides (hides) content from displaying. Eliminates trailing whitespace so there are no unsightly gaps in output. Useful for commenting Wikka markup.
Elides (hides) content from displaying. Preserves trailing
whitespace (note the gap).

2. Headers

Use between six = (for the biggest header) and two = (for the smallest header) on both sides of a text to render it as a header.

3. Horizontal separator

4. Forced line break

Line 1
Line 2

5. Lists and indents

You can indent text using a tilde (~), a tab, or four spaces (which will auto-convert into a tab).

To create bulleted/ordered lists, use the following markup (you can always use 4 spaces instead of a tilde):

Bulleted lists

Numbered lists

Ordered lists using uppercase characters

Ordered lists using lowercase characters

Ordered lists using uppercase Roman numerals

Ordered lists using lowercase Roman numerals

6. Inline comments

To format some text as an inline comment, use an indent (tilde, tab, or four spaces) followed by a &.

7. Images

To place images on a Wiki page, you can use the image action.

Image links can be external or internal Wiki links. You don't need to enter a link at all, and in that case just an image will be inserted. You can use the optional classes left and right to float images left and right. You don't need to use all those attributes, only url is required while alt is recommended for accessibility.

8. Links

To create a link to a wiki page you can use any of the following options:

• Type a WikiName (works only for page names with no whitespace):

• Add a forced link surrounding the page name by [[ and ]] (everything after the | will be shown as description):
  
  [[SandBox|Test your formatting skills]]
  Test your formatting skills
  
  [[SandBox|沙箱]]
  沙箱
  
  

• Add an image with a link (see instructions above)

To link to external pages , you can do any of the following:

• Type a URL inside the page:
  
  http://blog.wikkawiki.org
  http://blog.wikkawiki.org
  
  

• Add a forced link surrounding the URL by [[ and ]] (everything after the | will be shown as description):
  
  [[http://docs.wikkawiki.org|Wikka documentation]]
  Wikka documentation
  
  [[community@wikkawiki.org|Wikka community list]]
  Wikka community list
  
  

• Add an image with a link (see instructions above)

• Add an interwiki link (InterWiki browse the list of available interwiki tags):
  
  WikiPedia:WikkaWiki
  WikiPedia:WikkaWiki
  
  Google:CSS
  Google:CSS
  
  Thesaurus:Happy
  Thesaurus:Happy
  
  

9. Tables

Tables can be created using two pipe (||) symbols. Everything in a single line is rendered as a table row.

Example:

||Cell 1||Cell 2||

Cell 1

Cell 2

Header cells can be rendered by placing an equals sign between the pipes.

Example:
|=|Header 1|=|Header 2||
||Cell 1||Cell 2||

Header 1	Header 2
Cell 1	Cell 2

Row and column spans are specified with x: and y: in parentheses just after the pipes.

Example:


|=| |=|(x:2)Columns||
|=|(y:2) Rows||Cell 1||Cell 2||
||Cell 3||Cell 4||

	Columns
Rows	Cell 1	Cell 2
	Cell 3	Cell 4

Many additional features are available using table markup. A more comprehensive table markup guide is available on this server's TableMarkup page. A complete syntax reference is available on this server's TableMarkupReference page.

10. Colored Text

Colored text can be created using the color action:

You can also use hex values:

Alternatively, you can specify a foreground and background color using the fg and bg parameters (they accept both named and hex values):

11. Floats

To create a left floated box , use two < characters before and after the block.

Example:


To create a right floated box , use two > characters before and after the block.

Example:



Note: Use ::c:: to clear floated blocks.

12. Code formatters

You can easily embed code blocks in a wiki page using a simple markup. Anything within a code block is displayed literally. To create a generic code block you can use the following markup:

To create a code block with syntax highlighting , you need to specify a code formatter (see below for a list of available code formatters).

You can also specify an optional starting line number.

If you specify a filename , this will be used for downloading the code.

13. Mindmaps

Wikka has native support for mindmaps. There are two options for embedding a mindmap in a wiki page.

Option 1: Upload a FreeMind file to a webserver, and then place a link to it on a wikka page: http://yourdomain.com/freemind/freemind.mm No special formatting is necessary.

Option 2: Paste the FreeMind data directly into a wikka page:

• Open a FreeMind file with a text editor.

• Select all, and copy the data.

• Browse to your Wikka site and paste the Freemind data into a page.

14. Embedded HTML

You can easily paste HTML in a wiki page by wrapping it into two sets of doublequotes.


By default, some HTML tags are removed by the SafeHTML parser to protect against potentially dangerous code. The list of tags that are stripped can be found on the Wikka:SafeHTML page.

It is possible to allow all HTML tags to be used, see Wikka:UsingHTML for more information.
