Further Helping New Members

An explanation on how to work this site.

For everything before, please go to "Helping New Members" 

Wand

Used for multiple things, I'll split them up in the order shown.

Columns

Columns split what you're typing into two, three, or four sections.
 

Type {columns:count=X} to start, replacing the X with how many you want.
 

When done, type {col} to move into the next column. Once for two columns, twice for three, and thrice for four.
 

When done, type {/columns} to complete them.
 

Countdown
Used to countdown to a specific date. Type {code:countdown('YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM')} to create it manually. In order, those mean Year, Month, Day, Hour, and Minute. However, the hour and minute are optional. If you only want the date, type {code:countdown('YYYY-MM-DD')} instead.

To give an example, the time to the end of the century is [Refresh to load countdown.] . If you think I typed that, returning will have that number fall by itself. When the countdown has finished, it'll say [Refresh to load countdown.] .



Drop Cap

Drop caps work like those old books with the first big letter. Type {dropcap} to make it happen, then {/dropcap} to finish it off. If you don't want to do it manually, you must highlight the section you want affected.

Be warned, once you use it, you have to use the Code View ({/}) to edit it.

Dropnote
A dropnote is used to store information ▶︎

From words, to sentences, to paragraphs.

​ that may interrupt what you're writing. Type {dropnote:TEXT} putting whatever you need afterwards, then {/dropnote} to place it in the dropnote.

Embed
Used mainly for video links to YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, Podbean, or Giphy. If you wish to do it manually, type {embed:URL} and it should be made. I don't know too much about this, however, as I don't use this very often.


I will continue when I can.
