====== DokuWiki Syntax Quick Guide ======
Welcome! This page is designed to show you how DokuWiki syntax works. By editing this page, you can see how the code is written to generate what you are reading.
===== 1. Text Formatting =====
You can easily apply different styles to your text:
* **Bold text** (surrounded by two asterisks).
* //Italic text// (surrounded by two slashes).
* __Underlined text__ (surrounded by two underscores).
* ''Monospaced text'' (surrounded by two single quotes).
* Subscript and Superscript (using tags).
* Strikethrough text (using tags).
===== 2. Headlines =====
You can structure your content using up to 5 levels of headlines. The more equals signs (`=`) you use around the text, the higher the headline level.
==== Level 3 Headline ====
=== Level 4 Headline ===
== Level 5 Headline ==
===== 3. Lists =====
==== Unordered Lists (Bullets) ====
To create a bulleted list, leave two spaces at the beginning of the line and use an asterisk:
* Item 1
* Item 2
* Sub-item (four spaces before the asterisk)
* Another sub-item
==== Ordered Lists (Numbers) ====
To create a numbered list, leave two spaces at the beginning of the line and use a hyphen:
- First step
- Second step
- Sub-step (four spaces before the hyphen)
===== 4. Links =====
DokuWiki allows you to create links easily:
* **Internal links (to another page in your wiki):** [[namespace:page_name|Text to display]]
* **External links:** [[https://www.google.com|Go to Google]]
* **Emails:**
===== 5. Images and Files =====
You can insert images using double curly brackets. If you add vertical bars (`|`), you can add a title or resize it:
{{wiki:dokuwiki-128.png|DokuWiki Logo}}
{{wiki:dokuwiki-128.png?50|Logo resized to 50 pixels}}
===== 6. Tables =====
Use the caret symbol (`^`) for headers and the vertical bar (`|`) for normal cells.
^ Header 1 ^ Header 2 ^ Header 3 ^
| Row 1 Col 1 | Row 1 Col 2 | Row 1 Col 3 |
| Row 2 Col 1 | Row 2 Col 2 | Row 2 Col 3 |
===== 7. Code Blocks and Unformatted Text =====
If you need to show source code, use the '''' and '''' tags.
For text you don't want DokuWiki to format, use the '''' and '''' tags.
Here I can use **asterisks** and //slashes// without formatting being applied.
===== 8. Quotes =====
Use the greater-than sign (`>`) to create blockquotes.
> This is an example quote.
>> This is a nested quote inside the previous one.
>>> And this is an even deeper quote.
===== 9. Horizontal Rules =====
To create a separator line, simply write four or more hyphens in a row:
