I don't understand how to do tfou zbi

You should already know how to write and read correctly before you start doing something like that...
I won't say anything apart from approving the message 🙂 discord markdown must understand ^^
Hello good night
Is it normal that I have to put an arrow like this "<" to be able to write in blue because if I don't put the arrow it will write in yellow
Thank you for your reply
Yes 🙂 the discord markdown is a bit capricious you really have to do what is said 🙂
hello blue
turquoise does not work is this normal?
If you have to do:
“`bash
"
"`
Tell me if it helped you 🙂
Hey!
Thank you it's really great, I have a question, is it possible to combine bold + color? To make a title for example highlighted
I don't think so unfortunately, you can always try but since you will be between "it won't take the fat 🙂 )
Hi,
Yes it is possible, just place your order of bold (** **) upstream and downstream of your order in color.
For instance :
**
“`HTTP
YOUR TEXT HERE
"`
**
So
Thank you 😉
Is there any way to hide the parameters that define the colors? like to write in red for example you have to show the – in front of diff for the syntax but I don't want you to see the dash, just the message in red
no unfortunately you can't, for the markdown you have to leave some info (it's as if you were making code)
Hi,
It is possible to do it but with only 3 colors to my knowledge. Green (weird), Cyan (turquoise) and orange.
😉
Hello, your article helped me a lot, thank you very much. Tell me, would you know how to go to the line on Discord? Thanks in advance

(SHIFT + enter if you don't know Shift ^^)
that's really cool thanks!
No worries 🙂
Hi there
I may be asking a stupid question but can we do it on the phone? Or is it just PC?
Because personally I can't do it on the phone, I'm sure I'm doing it wrong
Thank you for your reply ^^
I was talking about the colors I forgot to specify
On the phone it must be exactly the same, if you want to test send me a discord PM I will test by going to mobile. But I don't live pq on PC we couldn't do it 🙂 (watch out for space and everything)

Hi,
Is there a way to write in color on a smartphone?
I think you should be able to do the command lines directly via your smartphone (I haven't tried it) but when I do them on PC, it works and when I put myself on a smartphone there is no color ;(
On the phone I think it can come from how discord coded it and suddenly I'm not sure 😉 (maybe not the same thing) I'm never on such ^^
There is no way to see colors on phone by any chance?
I don't think so 🙁
Thank you mtn js how to hide the text 🙂
No worries, the purpose of the page is to help you with discord so it's great!
