Markdown codefence syntax is widely available in other Markdown parsers like GitHub and therefore is the recommend syntax for generating portable Markdown.

Parameter

Name Default Notes
<content> <empty> Your list as Markdown or from your favorite tree commandline tool.

Item Syntax

<NAME> [ | <ICON> [ | <COLOR> ] ]

The NAME can be followed by an optional pipe (|) to define an ICON and further optional pipe to define the icon’s COLOR.

  • ICON: Font Awesome icon name set to the left of the NAME. If you give a single string, it is selected from Font Awesome’s solid icons. If you want to use a different set, you have to give the complete styles after the double colons. See above example for the home.php.

  • COLOR: The CSS color value to be used. If not set, the primary color will be used.

    You can also set a style value known from other shortcodes.

    • by severity: caution, important, info, note, tip, warning
    • by brand color: primary, secondary, accent
    • by color: blue, cyan, green, grey, magenta, orange, red
    • by special color: default, transparent, code, link, action
    • you can also define your own styles.

    If a style and a named HTML color have the same name, the style color will be used.
