What are formatters and how do they work?

The formatter is in charge of converting wiki syntax into HTML output.


If you wrap a block of text in double percent signs, you can display the content in another format/Layout.

Use(r) point of view

Included formatters in Wikka 1.1.6.0:

• Native:
  • code - wraps the the block in <pre> </pre> tags, show as plain text.
  • email - add every reply in another color.
  • ini - highlighting for ini-file format.
  • php - based on the PHP highlight_string function.
  • wakka - this is the code behind the function $this->Format and is responsible for translating the wiki-code into html-code.
• 3rd Party:
  • GeSHi - see SyntaxHighlighter for a list of all supported syntax.
  • (SafeHTML can also be seen as a formatter of safe html code, but is accessed by wrapping the code in double-double-quote signs. )

Usage:

• %%(formatter[;line-number]) code %%
