Markdown Guide¶

Simple text formatting¶

To set a text in italics, you can put it in asterisks or underscores. For example,

Please *really* pay your _ticket_.

will become:

Please really pay your ticket.

If you set double asterisks or underscores, the text will be printed in bold. For example,

This is **important**.

will become:

This is important.

You can also display, for example:

Input this `exactly like this`.

You will get:

Input this exactly like this.

Links¶

You can create a link by just pasting it in, e.g.

Check this on https://en.wikipedia.org

will become:

Check this on https://en.wikipedia.org

However, if you want to control the text of the link, you can put the text of the link in [] brackets and the link target in () parentheses, like this:

Check this on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org).

This will yield:

Check this on Wikipedia

All links created with pretix Markdown syntax will open in a new tab.

Lists¶

You can create un-numbered lists by prepending the lines with asterisks.

* First item
* Second item with a text that is too long to
  fit in a line
* Third item

will become:

• First item

• Second item with a text that is too long to fit in a line

• Third item

You can also use numbers as list items

1.  Red
2.  Green
3.  Blue

to get

1. Red

2. Green

3. Blue

Headlines¶

To create a headline, prepend it with # for the main headline, ## for a headline of the second level, and so on. For example:

# Headline 1
## Headline 2
### Headline 3
#### Headline 4
##### Headline 5
###### Headline 6

We do not recommend using headlines of the first level, as pretix will already set the name of your event as a level-1 headline of the page and HTML pages should have only one headline on the first level.

You can also use

*****

to create a horizontal line, like the following:
