Question
How can I use the Source code (HTML) option in the help center article editor toolbar to format the text of my article?
Answer
Use the help center article editor toolbar to format your articles. The Source code feature lets you apply HTML tags to enrich your text.
Here is a list of HTML tags you can use in your articles:
| Blockquotes |
<blockquote>block quote text here</blockquote>
|
| Preformatted text |
<pre>pre-formatted text here</pre>
|
| Headings |
<h1>header text here</h1> (h1 largest, h6 smallest)
|
| Superscript |
<sup>superscript text here</sup>
|
| Subscript |
<sub>subscript text here</sub>
|
| Strikethrough |
<strike>strikethrough text</strike>
|
| Indent |
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Indented text here</p> Change the number of pixels (for example, 35px) to adjust the indent. |
| Inline code |
<code>snippet here</code>
|
| Highlight |
<mark>highlighted text here</mark>
|
