Images and documents in between the text

You can place an image in between the (body) text instead of before or after it. Wiki-code is used for this. To put the second image of the page between the text, use this wiki code:

[[image 02]]

Use another number for another image; the numbers are dependent upon their order on the page.

The image will appear in the text (and disappear from it's original location) after saving the page. While editing, the image will disappear shortly. The number - in our case 02 - will remain visible.

Adding video

From YouTube

You can use YouTube videos on your pages. You can get the required YouTube code on the website of YouTube. Then type a wikicode using [[youtube //code//]], replace code with the YouTube code. For example:

[[youtube nogDHP0gl9M]]

will result in:

From a website other then YouTube

This is explained in this article.

Links

Links to other pages

You can link to other pages of the anyMeta website. This requires the use of the unique number (ID) of a page. This number can be found in the URL of the page; for example: in www.mediamatic.nl/page/30555/nl, the number 30555 is the unique ID of the page.

A link to this page is made with (( (parentheses), then the number, then a | (pipe), the text you want to show and then )) (parentheses); for example:

((30555|Link to the help page))

Link to the help page

Links to other web pages and email addresses

You can connect to other web pages and email addresses in your page. To do this, you use the Link button above the text box. Then you enter the url (the link to the website) and the title you want to show. Click on ok and the link will be placed in the text box.

Links can also be made with wiki-code by placing a [ (square bracket), the url, a space, the title of the link and another ] to close. In both cases it will look like this:

[http://www.anymeta.net anyMeta]

anyMeta

Links to email addresses are made by placing "" before the email address; for example:

mailto:helpdesk@mediamatic.nl

You can show a different text with a [ (square bracket] before the email address, a space before the email address en a ] (square bracket) after the alternative text; for example:

[mailto:helpdesk@mediamatic.nl email me]

Layout

Paragraphs

The text can be arranged by making sub headers. First, select the text that you want to use as a sub header. Then click the button Sub header above the text box.

To make a sub header with wiki code, type ++ (two plus signs) before the sub header; for example : ++ Sub header
The more plus signs used, the smaller the sub header.

Emphasis (bold and italic)

Parts of the text can be made bold or italic by selecting them and clicking on the button Bold or Italic above the text box.

To make the text bold with wiki code, type``** (two asterisks) before and after the text. For italic, use // (two slashes) before and after the text; for example: text can be made **bold** or //italic//. +++ Lists Lists are easily made by placing an * (asterisk) before the line, for example: * apples``
* pears
* tomatoes

Resulting in:

• apples
• pears
• tomatoes

Spaces before the asterisks indicate their level in the list (nesting). Numbered lists can be made with a # (hash or pound symbol).

Quotes

Quotes are made by putting an > (angle bracket) before every line of the quote, like in email messages. For example:

> This quote is by nobody. Nobody at all. It can be very long and if more words are added, it goes over several lines, but it only needs one angle bracket.

This quote is by nobody. Nobody at all. It can be very long and if more words are added, it goes over several lines, but it only needs one angle bracket.

Table of contents

A very long page with many sub headers should be divided over seperate pages. If for some reason this does not work, a table of contents can be made to create clarification. A table of contents is made by typing [[toc]] before the first sub header; for example:

Introductory text.

[[toc]]

+++ First sub header
Some text

+++ Second paragraph
Some more text.

HTML editing

You can also use HTML in pages. Start the piece of html with <html> on it's own line and end it with``</html>`` on its own line.
