Markdown

Markdown is used throughout Gorilla: in the task builder and the questionnaire builder to add styling and to format Text.

It is a very simple 'markup' language that can be used to format sections of text, providing a similar set of functionality to text editors such as Word. For example, you can create titles, embolden or italicise text or create numbered/bullet-pointed lists, among many other things.

Note: In order to format your text using Markdown in the Task Builder, you should apply Markdown to the Rich Text Zone.

The other key feature of Markdown is that you can include regular HTML code, you can find our HTML styling guide here.

Below is a guide for common formatting in Markdown:

Using HTML within Markdown

You can use HTML within markdown and it will usually work pretty well:

<img src='/support/images/gorilla_logo_red.png'>

Just be sure to use single ' quotation marks within your html code.

If you use double quotation marks in your html it may not always work!
