Wiki-Syntax Lists | |
In Tiki Wiki pages and other contexts that support Wiki formatting (including articles, forums, and blogs), you can easily create bulleted, numbered, and definition lists. In numbered lists, Tiki numbers the items automatically. You can also create nested lists. The following sections explain the details; see the Quick Reference for an overview. Scroll down to Help! if something goes wrong. In this page: |

Creating a Bulleted List | |
If you type an asterisk (*) at the beginning of a line, Tiki places a bullet (a black dot) at the beginning of the line. The line is indented and formatted with a hanging indent, so that second and subsequent lines are indented and aligned with the first line. To create a bulleted list, do the following:
|
Creating a Numbered List | |
If you type a hash mark (#) at the beginning of a line, Tiki numbers the line and indents it from the left margin. The item's text is formatted with a hanging indent, so that second and subsequent lines are indented and aligned with the first line. To create a numbered list, do the following:
|
Multilevel style numbering | |
Since Tiki18 one can make numbered lists output unique numbers for each sub-item instead of reseting the counter to 1. For example, when it is wrapped in a PluginDiv with Copy to clipboard
Tip Enable "Multilevel style numbering for ordered lists" preference ( wiki_make_ordered_list_items_display_unique_numbers ) on the "Editing and Plugins" control panel to apply this globally on all ordered lists rendered in Tiki.
|
Creating a Nested List | |
A nested list is a bulleted or numbered list that has more than one level — that is, some items have "sub-items". To create a nested list, type two or more asterisks (bulleted lists) or hash marks (numbered lists) at the beginning of the line, as shown in the following examples: * Level 1 (bulleted list)
# Level 1 (numbered list)

Creating an Outline Numbered List | |
You can add some custom CSS to a page by using the (PluginHTML|HTML Plugin).

Adding Hidden Details | |
An expandable area allows you to display the major items in your list by default. Every item is still there, but it needs to be expanded to become visible. An expandable area is created by adding a minus - character after the star * characters.
|
Multi-line Items | |
Text can be forced to continue at the same indentation level in a list without having a bullet or a Number assigned to it. This is accomplished by having a Plus + character start each line. The number of Plus characters controls the indentation level.
|
Creating a Definition List | |
A definition list displays a term that is aligned flush left; the term's definition is positioned on the subsequent line and indented. Here's an example:
To create a definition list, do the following:
|
Creating a Table of Contents List | |
Use the {maketoc} plugin to automatically create a table of contents, based on the headings on the current wiki page. For example, using {maketoc} on this page will produce: |
Table of contents | |||||||||||||||||||||
|
Remarks | ||||
{maketoc:box} produces a table of contents without respect to the hierarchical order.
