Formatting your text

Two ways to write

You never have to learn the marks. Every editor has a toolbar — select your text and press B for bold.

If you already write Markdown, typing the marks works for most of them — **bold**, *italic*, a heading, a list, a quotation all turn into the real thing as you type.

A few do not: a link written by hand, a table, and a picture. For those, press </> in the toolbar to edit the Markdown directly, then press it again to come back. It is the same text either way — the button changes how you see it, never what is saved.

EmphasisAvailable now

LinksAvailable now

ListsAvailable now

Headings and quotationsAvailable now

Longer descriptions benefit from a heading or two, and a quotation carries a house's history better than a paraphrase.

TablesAvailable now

Use the toolbar to insert a table, or type the rows with pipes. The second line, with the dashes, is what marks the row above it as the header.

Pictures and filesAvailable now

Use the picture button in the toolbar. It shows the photographs you have already uploaded for this house, association, event or offering — choose one and it drops into your text where the cursor is.

In messages and forum topics you can also attach files that sit below your message rather than inside it — up to four at a time, as JPEG, PNG, WebP or PDF.

What isn't supported

These are left out on purpose, not by oversight:

• Code and code blocksNo audience here.
• ChecklistsA description isn't a to-do list. Use a bulleted list.
• FootnotesPut the source in a link instead.
• Raw HTMLRemoved when you save.

One text per language

Each language tab holds its own text and its own formatting. Making a phrase bold in English doesn't touch the Czech version — you're writing six separate descriptions, not one description translated six ways.

Visitors are shown the description in their own language when you've written one, and the English one when you haven't.
