Lesson #9 - Steemit Block Quotes - Check out my Markdown Course!

in #markdown7 years ago (edited)

Learning Markdown helps you make your great content look great!

I created an online course called Steem Markdown, which teaches you how to use Markdowns to format your Steemit posts.

In this post, I am including information from Lesson #8 - Blockquotes.

If you want to access the full online course (19 lessons) for FREE, click here!

Getting Started

Block Quotes are quotations that are set apart from the main text of a written document.

Block quotes are commonly used when sending a reply to an email.

In Steemit, a block quote is distinguished from the main text by use of:

  • indentation
  • lighter font color
  • a vertical line

The Comparison

What you type:

This is the main text

> Block quotes are used to draw attention to important text.
>
> I can add more than one line to the blockquote.



What you see:

This is the main text

Block quotes are used to draw attention to important text.

I can add more than one line to the blockquote.

Practice Makes Perfect

Now it's your turn to practice what you have learned.

  • Open Steemit.com and click Submit a Story.
  • Copy the following text and paste it into the Steemit Markdown editor. Notice how the text reacts differently based on the number of > used.
>This is a single line in the blockquote.

>This example contains two lines of blockquotes.
>This is the second line.

>
>The empty lines before and after will not be included.
>

>In order to include the middle line in a blockquote,
>
>you have to use the greater than sign.



Keeping writing great posts and keep making your great posts look great!

Awesome post. Please post about paragraph.
I also need help on my post. Show some love on my post.

@irrahul, thanks for the encouragement. What are you wanting to learn about paragraphs?

lesson #9 sounds great, but lesson #4 was more educating. pls try to elaborate more on the further lessons, its really helping, Thanks a lot

@akiripromise, thanks for the constructive feedback. I really appreciate it.

I am trying to give the same value in each of the lessons, but sometimes there is not much to share in a lesson (and a lot more to share in others). I will be reviewing the lessons over the next few weeks in order to add content (if necessary) and make the lessons easier to understand. If you have any specific recommendations, please let me know!

Bang @sumatranate, kenapa tidak ikut berkontribusi di utopian-io?
Di utopian mereka menghargai kontribusi seperti postingan yang abang bikin ini
Abang bisa membaca ketentuan mereka tentang kriteria konstribusi atau bergabung di channel discord mereka untuk sekedar mengobrol :)

@kharrazi, trims atas infonya dan sarannya. Saya akan membaca ketentuan mereka tentang kriteria konstribusi. Mudah-mudahan saya bisa menjalin hubungan baik sama utopian.

Terkadang lebih mudah mencari cerahnya lain, lebih salit menghadapi Awak droe kue droe, sangat bagus @sumatranate, saya harga pendapat @kharrazi
