Intro
DText is the name for Danbooru's custom text formatting language. It's a mishmash of several markdown languages including Textile, MediaWiki, and BBCode.
Inline
[b]strong text[/b]
Makes text bold: example.
[i]italicized text[/i]
Makes text italicized: example.
[s]strikethrough text[/s]
Draws a line through text: example.
[u]underlined text[/u]
Draws a line under text: example.
[tn]translation note[/tn]
Formats text as a translation note for use in commentary translations: Example text.
Note: Although it is discouraged, using more than one of the above opening tags will require the same amount of closing tags to remove the associated styling.
- Will work: [b][b]Bold text.[/b][/b] Regular text.
- Won't work: [b][b]Bold text.[/b] Regular text.
Links
General links
http://danbooru.me
URLs are automatically linked: http://danbooru.me.
<http://danbooru.me>.
http://danbooru.me.
Surround URLs with <> in case of punctuation or other text immediately before or after the URL.
"link title":https://github.com/r888888888/danbooru/
Links to an exact URL: link title.
"link title":[https://github.com/r888888888]/danbooru/]
Links to an exact URL: link title/danbooru/. Use the brackets to avoid unintentionally including words or characters that are not part of the intended link.
Note: If a link ends with punctuation, such as parentheses, then surround the entire link with brackets.
"link title":/artists/62361
Links URL relative to Danbooru's servers: link title.
Note: You are strongly encouraged to use relative links (as opposed to absolute links) back to this site, mainly because of all the different Danbooru mirrors such as Safebooru.
"fragment link":#dtext-link_here
Links URL relative to current page: fragment link
Note: You can use existing ID's, or add additional ID's with the header method discussed later.
