Profile bio

Formatting your bio.

Your bio is the first thing people read on your profile. A line of bold, a centered tagline, a couple of links — small touches that make it yours. Everything here works the same in the app and on the web.

Make it yours

The bio editor has a toolbar — tap a button, or type the commands yourself. A command at the start of a line styles that whole line.

A centered, bold tagline

Good to know

Every command

One formatting system, identical in the app and on the web. A command at the start of a line styles that whole line; combine the style flags like [BIC] to mix and match.

[B]…Bold the line
[I]…Italic the line
[U]…Underline the line
[S]…Strikethrough the line
[C]…Center the line
[BIC]…Mix and match — bold + italic + centered, any combo
[H1] [H2] [H3]Headings, big to small
[Q]…Quote block
[*]…Bullet point
1. …Numbered list
[SPOILER]…[/SPOILER]Hidden until tapped
[text](url)A labelled link
gib://…An in-app link (profile, post, community)
[IMG=url]An inline image
#tagA hashtag
@everyone @staffMentions (where allowed)

The same system, everywhere else
