    66Trac has a built in small and powerful wiki rendering engine. This wiki engine implements an ever growing subset of the commands from other popular Wikis,
    7 especially [http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/ MoinMoin].
    8 
    9 
    10 This page demonstrates the formatting syntax available anywhere WikiFormatting is allowed.
     7especially [http://moinmo.in/ MoinMoin] and [trac:WikiCreole].
     8
     9
     10This page will give you an in-depth explanation of the wiki markup available anywhere WikiFormatting is allowed.
     11
     12The ''Cheat sheet'' below gives you a quick overview for the most common syntax, each link in the ''Category'' column will lead you to the more detailed explanation later in this page.
     13
     14A few other wiki pages present the advanced features of the Trac wiki markup in more depth:
     15 - TracLinks covers all the possible ways to refer precisely to any Trac resource or parts thereof,
     16 - WikiPageNames talks about the various names a wiki page can take, CamelCase or not
     17 - WikiMacros lists the macros available for generating dynamic content,
     18 - WikiProcessors and WikiHtml details how parts of the wiki text can be processed in special ways

    36284
    37285Notes:
    38286 * `{{{...}}}` and {{{`...`}}} commands not only select a monospace font, but also treat their content as verbatim text, meaning that no further wiki processing is done on this text.
    39287 * {{{ ! }}} tells wiki parser to not take the following characters as wiki format, so pay attention to put a space after !, e.g. when ending bold.
     288 * all the font styles marks have to be used in opening/closing pairs,
     289   and they must nest properly (in particular, an `''` italic can't be paired
     290   with a `//` one, and `'''` can't be paired with `**`)
     291

    41293== Headings ==
    42294
    43 You can create heading by starting a line with one up to five ''equal'' characters ("=")
    44 followed by a single space and the headline text. The line should end with a space
    45 followed by the same number of ''='' characters.
    46 The heading might optionally be followed by an explicit id. If not, an implicit but nevertheless readable id will be generated.
     295You can create heading by starting a line with one up to six ''equal'' characters ("=")
     296followed by a single space and the headline text.
     297
     298[=#hn]
     299The headline text can be followed by the same number of "=" characters, but this is no longer mandatory.
     300
     301Finally, the heading might optionally be followed by an explicit id. If not, an implicit but nevertheless readable id will be generated.

    192492
    193493== Tables ==
    194 
     494=== Simple Tables ===
    195495Simple tables can be created like this:
    196 {{{
     496||= Wiki Markup =||= Display =||
     497{{{#!td
     498  {{{
     499  ||Cell 1||Cell 2||Cell 3||
     500  ||Cell 4||Cell 5||Cell 6||
     501  }}}
     502}}}
     503{{{#!td style="padding: 2em;"
    197504||Cell 1||Cell 2||Cell 3||
    198505||Cell 4||Cell 5||Cell 6||
    199506}}}
    200507
    201 Display:
    202 ||Cell 1||Cell 2||Cell 3||
    203 ||Cell 4||Cell 5||Cell 6||
    204 
    205 Note that more complex tables can be created using
    206 [wiki:WikiRestructuredText#BiggerReSTExample reStructuredText].
     508Cell headings can be specified by wrapping the content in a pair of '=' characters.
     509Note that the '=' characters have to stick to the cell separators, like this:
     510||= Wiki Markup =||= Display =||
     511{{{#!td
     512  {{{
     513  ||        ||= stable =||= latest =||
     514  ||= 0.10 =||  0.10.5  || 0.10.6dev||
     515  ||= 0.11 =||  0.11.6  || 0.11.7dev||
     516  }}}
     517}}}
     518{{{#!td style="padding: 2em;"
     519||        ||= stable =||= latest =||
     520||= 0.10 =||  0.10.5  || 0.10.6dev||
     521||= 0.11 =||  0.11.6  || 0.11.7dev||
     522}}}
     523
     524Finally, specifying an empty cell means that the next non empty cell will span the empty cells. For example:
     525||= Wiki Markup =||= Display =||
     526{{{#!td
     527  {{{
     528  || 1 || 2 || 3 ||
     529  |||| 1-2 || 3 ||
     530  || 1 |||| 2-3 ||
     531  |||||| 1-2-3 ||
     532  }}}
     533}}}
     534{{{#!td style="padding: 2em;"
     535|| 1 || 2 || 3 ||
     536|||| 1-2 || 3 ||
     537|| 1 |||| 2-3 ||
     538|||||| 1-2-3 ||
     539}}}
     540
     541Note that if the content of a cell "sticks" to one side of the cell and only one, then the text will be aligned on that side. Example:
     542||= Wiki Markup =||= Display =||
     543{{{#!td
     544  {{{
     545  ||=Text =||= Numbers =||
     546  ||left align    ||        1.0||
     547  ||  center      ||        4.5||
     548  ||      right align||     4.5||
     549  || default alignment ||   2.5||
     550  ||default||         2.5||
     551  ||  default ||      2.5||
     552  || default ||       2.5||
     553  }}}
     554}}}
     555{{{#!td style="padding: 2em;"
     556||=Text =||= Numbers =||
     557||left align    ||        1.0||
     558||  center      ||        4.5||
     559||      right align||     4.5||
     560|| default alignment ||   2.5||
     561||default||         2.5||
     562||  default ||      2.5||
     563|| default ||       2.5||
     564}}}
     565
     566If contrary to the example above, the cells in your table contain more text, it might be convenient to spread a table row over multiple lines of markup. The `\` character placed at the end of a line after a cell separator tells Trac to not start a new row for the cells on the next line.
     567
     568||= Wiki Markup =||

     583
     584=== Complex Tables ===
     585
     586If the possibilities offered by the simple "pipe"-based markup for tables described above are not enough for your needs, you can create more elaborated tables by using [#Processors-example-tables WikiProcessor based tables].
    207587
    208588
     
    211591Hyperlinks are automatically created for WikiPageNames and URLs. !WikiPageLinks can be disabled by prepending an exclamation mark "!" character, such as {{{!WikiPageLink}}}.
    212592
    213 Example:
    214 {{{
    215  TitleIndex, http://www.edgewall.com/, !NotAlink
    216 }}}
    217 
    218 Display:
    219  TitleIndex, http://www.edgewall.com/, !NotAlink
    220 
    221 Links can be given a more descriptive title by writing the link followed by a space and a title and all this inside square brackets.  If the descriptive title is omitted, then the explicit prefix is discarded, unless the link is an external link. This can be useful for wiki pages not adhering to the WikiPageNames convention.
    222 
    223 Example:
    224 {{{
    225  * [http://www.edgewall.com/ Edgewall Software]

     602
     603Links can be given a more descriptive title by writing the link followed by a space and a title and all this inside square brackets.
     604If the descriptive title is omitted, then the explicit prefix is discarded, unless the link is an external link. This can be useful for wiki pages not adhering to the WikiPageNames convention.

     620}}}
     621
     622Following the [trac:WikiCreole] trend, the descriptive title can also be specified by writing the link followed by a pipe ('|') and a title and all this inside //double// square brackets.
     623
     624{{{#!td

     643'''Note''': the [trac:WikiCreole] style for links is quick to type and
     644certainly looks familiar as it's the one used on Wikipedia and in many
     645other wikis. Unfortunately it conflicts with the syntax for [#Macros macros].
     646So in the rare case when you need to refer to a page which is named after
     647a macro (typical examples being TitleIndex, InterTrac and InterWiki),
     648by writing `[[TitleIndex]]` you will actually call the macro instead of linking
     649to the page.

    235651== Trac Links ==
    236652
    237653Wiki pages can link directly to other parts of the Trac system. Pages can refer to tickets, reports, changesets, milestones, source files and other Wiki pages using the following notations:
    238 {{{
    239  * Tickets: #1 or ticket:1
    240  * Reports: {1} or report:1

     681
     682== Setting Anchors ==
     683
     684An anchor, or more correctly speaking, an [http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/links.html#h-12.2.1 anchor name] can be added explicitly at any place in the Wiki page, in order to uniquely identify a position in the document:
     685
     686{{{
     687[=#point1]
     688}}}
     689
     690This syntax was chosen to match the format for explicitly naming the header id [#Headings documented above]. For example:
     691{{{
     692== Long title == #title
     693}}}
     694
     695It's also very close to the syntax for the corresponding link to that anchor:
     696{{{
     697[#point1]
     698}}}
     699
     700Optionally, a label can be given to the anchor:
     701{{{
     702[[=#point1 '''Point 1''']]
     703}}}
     704
     705||= Wiki Markup =||= Display =||

     719  ...
     720
     721  Point2:  [=#point2] Jump here
     722}}}
     723
     724For more complex anchors (e.g. when a custom title is wanted), one can use the Span macro, e.g. `[[span(id=point2, class=wikianchor, title=Point 2, ^(2)^)]]`.

     727== Escaping Links, WikiPageNames and other Markup == #Escaping
    255728
