samwoo Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Hello, Is it possible to do Line Breaks within Wiki Markup Bullets? I need to keep the structure of the text in the Bullets, but have line breaks between paragraphs within the bullets... Is this possible? I did try to use \n \n but it doesnt work Thanks, Samuel
Dan Munns Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Use double line return so: *cat *dog *horse will render as:
samwoo Posted March 29, 2018 Author Posted March 29, 2018 @Dan Munns Thanks for that, but it doesn't work if I need to show the paragraphs within the bullets Samuel
Dan Munns Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 @samwoo sorry I don’t quite get what it is your looking for. Can you screenshot an example?

Dan Munns Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 @samwoo ah ok I get you. It would normally be like this: *Bullet 1 *Bullet 2 *: Bullet 2 text *:More bullet 2 text *Bullet 3 And would render like Bullet 1 Bullet 2 Bullet 2 text More bullet 2 text Bullet 3 The *: is basically an indent and continuation of the current bullet. However not much of wiki markup seems to be used within Hornbill. I dont believe that you can have a line break within a list though as it will end the list and start a new one unless you add a <br /> which can break the formatting. also adding *: on its own line can do the same. @Steven Boardman is there any reason why wiki markup as a whole isn't added to Hornbill? Can we raise an enhancement request for it? Thanks

Being able to include paragraphs in bullets (or even manual lines such as @Dan Munns example) would be a great addition.
Steven Boardman Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 @Dan Munns @samwoo i've asked one of my colleagues who has added a lot of the wiki markup option to take a look at this requirement and see if there is more we can add
Daniel Dekel Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Hi @samwoo, We can add the option of adding a : at the beginning of line and it will indent the same as a * or # but without the symbol ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting/en ).So I'll add that as @Dan Munns suggested. I'll let you know when it's done. Thanks, Daniel.

(As well as for it to correctly be formatted as such in emails?) Many thanks, Samuel
Daniel Dekel Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Hi @samwoo, Yes, is fine ;-) . You will be able to see this working in the 2nd next release of collaboration core. Regarding the horizontal rule, is based on the same wiki mark-up definition. Use four dash chars in a new line. Outlook will also work in a similar way you you type four dashes so it might be OK for email. We'll have to see how it behaves. Also each email client will use a slightly different code. Anyway, first let's have the proper wiki mark-up and then we see how we go from there. Thanks, Daniel. P.S. Thanks @Dan Munns! 1
samwoo Posted April 10, 2018 Author Posted April 10, 2018 Awesome @Daniel Dekel! Many thanks for this. 11 minutes ago, Daniel Dekel said: 2nd next release of collaboration core. What does this mean? Just got me curious as it sounds like a major version, like release 2.0 of Collaboration Core, but then again with me and my excitable mind, i might just be misinterpreting that... and you actually means its in the release AFTER the next release of Collaboration Core. Many thanks! Samuel
Daniel Dekel Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 @samwoo, you are right, I was probably using our "local" language. Our next build is under testing and will be pushed to live in the next few days, so no new code can be added to this one. The new wiki feature will be added to the following build. No major release (for now) ;-) Thanks, Daniel.
Dan Munns Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 @Daniel Dekel not sure why but, your welcome 1 hour ago, Daniel Dekel said: Thanks @Dan Munns 2
samwoo Posted April 16, 2018 Author Posted April 16, 2018 Thanks @Daniel Dekel - looks good already! 1
samwoo Posted April 17, 2018 Author Posted April 17, 2018 @Daniel Dekel, Is it possible for the Wiki Markup Horizontal Rule be converted into a HTML Horizontal Rule when an email is sent? The HR looks good in Hornbill, but when an email is sent with text containing the Wiki-Markup HR, it shows - - - - instead and is a bit of a format-breaker when viewing the email in Hornbill or in Outlook. I haven't tested how the indents look in the Emails though. Many thanks, Samuel
Daniel Dekel Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 @samwoo where are you sending the email from?
samwoo Posted April 17, 2018 Author Posted April 17, 2018 @Daniel Dekel, Sending the email from within a ticket. Thanks, Samuel
Daniel Dekel Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 @samwoo, that part is in the Service Manager. Let me speak to the team to look at that. Daniel.

Daniel Dekel Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 @samwoo I was informed that it was just added to the platform, so you will probably be able to see it in a week or two ;-) 1
