Add 1-6 hash characters at the start of the line, corresponding to header levels 1-6. Note - leave a space between the group of hashes and the text example: ( # text)

Add a " > " before the line you want to Blockquote. Blockquote also allows you to be lazy and put a single " > " before the first line of a hand warped paragraph.

Blockquotes can be nested (i.e. a blockquote-in-a-blockquote) by adding additional levels of " > "
Example:

Format
> This is the first level of quoting.
>
> > This is nested blockquote.
>
> Back to the first level.

Result

This is the first level of quoting.

This is nested blockquote.

Back to the first level..

Place 3 or more asterisks " * " or underscores on a line by themselves. You can also put places between them.

To use Code Blocks

Simply indent every line of the block by at least 4 spaces or 4 backticks on top and below text.

To use code block always put the text in a new line and not a continuation of text.
Multiple lines can be also put in a Code block but the first line of it has to start in a new line
Example

Format

(4 spaces) This is
(4 spaces) a Code block

Result

This is 
a Code Block

:::

To make markdown treats certain characters like asterisk ( * ) and underscores ( _ ) as indicators of emphasis as literal all you have to do is backslash ( \ ) escape it.

**Bold**
If you dont use backslash and just use 2 asterisks ( ** ) at the beginning or end of a word or sentence then it will be shown as Bold.

Making copy-able Application forms.(For Groups/Sqauds/Company)

I see many groups in forums who have application forms which are formatted but the format is not copy-able.
to make copy-able formats follow this tutorial

Test Application form
Name: <answer>
Age: <answer>
Country: <answer>
Gender: <answer>

Now to make the above application format copy-able, I will simply use backslash escape. To use it just add a backslash ( \ ) behind every first group of emphasis indicators (here asterisks ( ** ) for emphasis of Bold).

Format:
\*\*Name:** <answer>
\*\*Age:** <answer>
\*\*Country:** <answer>
\*\*Gender:** <answer>

Result
**Name:** <answer>
**Age:** <answer>
**Country:** <answer>
**Gender:** <answer>

[Brophy]

Forum is now updated to the latest version of its software.

The plugins installed which handle the above should still work correctly.

(We are looking into the issue with rainbow colours and spoilers)
