Markup Master IndexThis page contains the most frequently used wiki markup, briefly. Follow the links in each section to learn more. Markup concepts introductionPmWiki markup can be applied to 'blocks' of text, and to text 'lines'. PmWiki markup is also used to read and save page, group, and wiki metadata through the use of variables. PmWiki markup can be used to process metadata variables though expressions and pagelists. PmWiki provides a wiki style markup that can be applied to text, lists, paragraphs, and blocks. Text markup, also known as wikitext is variable, see below, and in general broadly follows wiki conventions. Text markup only applies to single lines of text, delimited by a newline. Block markup is applied to multiple lines of text as paragraph blocks and division blocks. In PmWiki the most important markup is the directive.
The directive is signified by parenthesis and a colon, viz: Markup expressions LinksSee Links External linkshttps://example.com
