NEWBIE'S GUIDE TO FORMATTING FORUM POSTS
and making it work!
Anisopterra brought up how tricky forum post formatting could be, and I couldn't agree more!

If you have a question that wasn't solved here, send me a message and I'll add to this post! So without further ado, here's my guide to making your posts better!

Hello all,
Is there a guide somewhere that explains how to do some of the more fiddly aspects of formatting on this forum?
CODE
[.code]cursus vitae[./code]
cursus vitae
Disregard the periods in the first code box.
& n b s p ; & n b s p ; & n b s p ; & n b s p ; & n b s p ; & n b s p ; lorem mollis
lorem mollis
Disregard the spaces in the code box. Every "& n b s p ;" is a space.
Disregard this part for now, it didn't work properly.
Hope I helped, and remember to feel free to message me about something that wasn't in here but you'd love to see! Also, I'll try to add more descriptions to this thing soon (granted this doesn't get replaced or anything).
