Now that I’m getting settled into my new home, I figure it’s time for _you_ my readers to become more settled in as well. The biggest change you will have to deal with is in markup of your comments. If you wanted to use HTML in comments before, for instance to boldface, italicize, link or quote something, you could do so. Textpattern uses Textile, however. It’s a bit cumbersome for those who have not used it before, but in time it becomes pretty natural.
When commenting, click on the “Textile Help”:http://www.textpattern.com/help/?item=textile_comments link below the comment form to find out how to use it.
A quick rundown is as such:
*bq.* this is a blockquote. Place before a paragraph intending to be treated as a @<blockquote>@
**text** Place a * before and after text to be boldfaced.
__text__ is for italics. Place an _ before and after text to be italicized.
"link text":http://www.example.com is how you create a link. Link text surrounded in quotes, followed by a colon, then followed by the URL itself.
