71 You should not read any further if you want to be surprised.<br />*click to open/close*
73 (The text between thhe opening and the closing of the spoiler tag will be visible once the link is clicked. So *"There is a happy end."* wont be visible until the spoiler is uncovered.)
75 <p style="clear:both;"> </p>
87 <table border="1"><tbody><tr><th>Tables now</th></tr><tr><td>Have headers</td></tr></tbody></table>
89 <p style="clear:both;"> </p>
94 [*] First list element
95 [*] Second list element
97 <ul class="listbullet" style="list-style-type: circle;">
98 <li> First list element<br>
100 <li> Second list element</li>
103 [list] is equivalent to [ul] (unordered list).
105 [ol] can be used instead of [list] to show an ordered list:
108 [*] First list element
109 [*] Second list element
111 <ul class="listdecimal" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><li> First list element<br></li><li> Second list element</li></ul>
113 For more options on ordered lists, you can define the style of numeration on [list] argument:
114 <pre>[list=1]</pre> : decimal
116 <pre>[list=i]</pre> : lover case roman
118 <pre>[list=I]</pre> : upper case roman
120 <pre>[list=a]</pre> : lover case alphabetic
122 <pre>[list=A] </pre> : upper case alphabetic
130 You can embed video, audio and more in a message.
132 <pre>[video]url[/video]</pre>
133 <pre>[audio]url[/audio]</pre>
135 Where *url* can be an url to youtube, vimeo, soundcloud, or other sites wich supports oembed or opengraph specifications.
136 *url* can be also full url to an ogg file. HTML5 tag will be used to show it.
138 <pre>[url]*url*[/url]</pre>
140 If *url* supports oembed or opengraph specifications the embedded object will be shown (eg, documents from scribd).
141 Page title with a link to *url* will be shown.
146 <pre>[map]address[/map]</pre>
147 <pre>[map=lat,long]</pre>
149 You can embed maps from coordinates or addresses.
150 This require "openstreetmap" addon version 1.3 or newer.

154 Abstract for longer posts
155 -------------------------
157 If you want to spread your post to several third party networks you can have the problem that these networks have (for example) a length limitation.
160 Friendica is using a semi intelligent mechanism to generate a fitting abstract.
161 But it can be interesting to define an own abstract that will only be displayed on the external network.
162 This is done with the [abstract]-element.
165 <pre>[abstract]Totally interesting! A must-see! Please click the link![/abstract]
166 I want to tell you a really boring story that you really never wanted
169 Twitter would display the text "Totally interesting! A must-see! Please click the link!".
170 On Friendica you would only see the text after "I want to tell you a really ..."
172 It is even possible to define abstracts for separate networks:
175 [abstract]Hi friends Here are my newest pictures![abstract]
176 [abstract=twit]Hi my dear Twitter followers. Do you want to see my new
178 [abstract=apdn]Helly my dear followers on ADN. I made sone new pictures
179 that I wanted to share with you.[abstract]
180 Today I was in the woods and took some real cool pictures ...
183 For Twitter and App.net the system will use the defined abstracts.
184 For other networks (e.g. when you are using the "statusnet" connector that is used to post to GNU Social) the general abstract element will be used.
186 If you use (for example) the "buffer" connector to post to Facebook or Google+ you can use this element to define an abstract for a longer blogpost that you don't want to post completely to these networks.
188 Networks like Facebook or Google+ aren't length limited.
189 For this reason the [abstract] element isn't used.
190 Instead you have to name the explicit network:
193 [abstract]These days I had a strange encounter ...[abstract]
194 [abstract=goog]Helly my dear Google+ followers. You have to read my
195 newest blog post![abstract]
196 [abstract=face]Hello my Facebook friends. These days happened something
197 really cool.[abstract]
198 While taking pictures in the woods I had a really strange encounter ... </pre>
200 The [abstract] element isn't working with the native OStatus connection or with connectors where we post the HTML.
201 (Like Tumblr, Wordpress or Pump.io)
206 If you need to put literal bbcode in a message, [noparse], [nobb] or [pre] are used to escape bbcode:
208 <pre>[noparse][b]bold[/b][/noparse]</pre> : [b]bold[/b]
