A SIMPLY PLURAL FORMAT GUIDE >v<
because I've been asked "how do you []" too many times
Starred ( ✦ ) stuff are things we get asked a LOT
NON-MARKDOWN
1.1 : Changing the accent color
Dashboard > Accessibility > Highlight color
✦ 1.2 : Ordering groups
Lets say you wanna put a divider between two groups , but alas simply plural is alphabetical . First , go to https://www.editpad.org/tool/invisible-character , and scroll down to the table. Find what's labelled as Zero-Width Space and copy it.(click on the brackets)
Go to the group you want to be at the top and paste the space before the words
There should be 1 more character than before. Take your divider, and paste two spaces before the words. Whatever you want below it, paste three spaces before the words. If you've done it correctly, it should look like this:
The next divider would have four spaces , then C with five , then the next divider with six , etc. Subfolders should have the same amount of spaces as the parent one (C has five, so any C subgroups would have five.)
MARKDOWN
2.1 : The Basics
Simply plural bios follow basic Markdown, youve probably already figured this out, Still;
2.2 : Adding pictures
Adding pictures is simple, but requires hotlinking. We have a private Tumblr account where we post pictures for the links, as even if you delete posts the picture is still hosted on the site, but I assume any file hosting site will do. I've seen others use catbox and file garden.
"What is hotlinking" you ask? Its just copying and linking the image address. If your on PC, right click ; for mobile, press and hold.
Now to put this image on simply plural, you need to format it like this:
Adding the "#10x10" just changes the dimensions, this is not needed unless you would like to resize the images and can be left out. This also works with gifs.
✦ 2.3 : Novelty Markdown
the cool shit.
Also, you can put pictures besides text
If your having trouble with this, take a look at these : Breaking Paragraphs (link) and Blankspaces (link)
2.4 : Those weird mini profiles
You can @ specific profiles , clicking on the @ outside of editing shows you their profile
Gonna say that's about it for now... might make a part 2 if I missed something
