Global Markup makes your text look dynamic and professional. Use Global Markups in tools that accept text input (Messages, Wikis, Tickets, and Stand Up Reports). It allows you to create hyperlinks to other objects such as tickets, Wiki files, files, revisions, or users, and allows you to insert images, URLs, and code snippets.
1. Basic Text Formatting
Format your text using the global markup syntax in Messages, Tickets, Stand Up Reports, and Wikis (when "textile" is selected for the markup format).
Example | Result | |
Header Title (1) | h1. Title 1 |
Title 1 |
Header Title (2) | h2. Title 2 |
Title 2 |
Bold |
This is *bold* text | This is bold text |
Italic |
This is _italic_ | This is italic |
Inline code |
run @git status@ to view status | run git status to view status |
Bullet list | * One ** One.two * Two |
|
Numbered list | # One # Two ## Two.one |
|
Numbered - Bullet list | # One ** One.bullet # Two |
|
2. Insert an Image, URL, or Code Snippet
Insert images, URLs, and code snippets using the global markup syntax.
Example | Result | |
Inserting an image (prerequisite: upload the image to the File tool first) |
i.) Syntax - [[Image:image_file_name]] ii.) This is a flower [[image:rose.png]] |
This is a flower |
Inserting a direct link | i.) Syntax - [[url:url]] ii.)Here is the link to Assembla website [[url:https://www.assembla.com]] |
Here is the link to Assembla website https://www.assembla.com |
Inserting a link with a text display | i.) Syntax - [[url:url | display text]] ii.) On [[url:https://www.assembla.com|the home page]] you can see ..... |
On the home page you can see ..... |
Inserting code snippets (prerequisite: have the Snippet tool added to your Space) |
i.) Syntax - [[snippet:space name:ID]] ii.) You can accomplish this using this code: [[snippet:sahar-test:10753]] |
3. Add hyperlinks
Create hyperlinks to other objects such as tickets, Wiki files, files, revisions, or users using the global markup syntax.
Syntax | Example | |
Linking to a Wiki page: | [[Wiki_name]] or [[Wikinameldisplaytext]] | [[home]] or [[home|the Wiki home]] |
Linking to a section on a Wiki page: | [[Wiki_name#section_name]] or [[Wiki_name#section_name|Display Text]] |
[[Example Page#Section One]] or [[Example Page#Section One|Section 1]] |
Linking to a section within a wiki page: (only works if you are in a wiki) |
[[section_name]] or [[section_name|display text]] | [[#Section One|First Section]] |
Linking to a Ticket in the same space: | [[ticket:number]] or #5 | [ticket:5]] #5 |
Linking to a commit: (only works for the 1st repo added in the space) |
[[revision:number]] or [[r:number]] [[revision:number|text]] or [[r:number|text]] |
[[revision:5]] [[r:ff33ee2159d]] This issue was corrected in [[r:fe343e5b|this commit]] |
Linking to a file: | [[file:id_or_name]] or [[file:id_or_name|text]] | [[file:tables.sql]] [[file:tables.sql|New tables]] |
Linking to a user: | [[user:Assembla_username]] or [[user:Assembla_username|alternative text]] | Please welcome [[user:some_username|Our latest member]] in the space. |
- You can use a page name in a URL. Substitute an underscore (_) in place of any spaces. E.g.Wiki page becomes Wiki_page
- Also You can create page names and links with CamelCase. This assumes any word with two or more upper case characters separated by lower case characters is a page link.
- You can use CamelCase without linking to any page, in that case just use ! sign in front of CamelCase word. E.g. !CamelCase
