Textile is a markup language with which texts can be easily formatted for publishing online.

The text editor has been renewed

A new, graphic text editor has been enabled in MyCashflow for formatting text with easy-to-use tools. If you are familiar with using Word, you'll do fine with the new editor too.

If you still use the old editor, read more about the text editor's update and how to enable it.

Textile lets you to, for instance

  • add images, hyperlinks, lists and tables to the text.
  • format the text by using italics, bold and other inline formatting.

Textile does not require the command of HTML or any online publishing technology; it has been designed as an easy-to-use writing tool right from the start.

You can use Textile markup in all MyCashflow text fields, in which Textile markup has been mentioned.

By using the MyCashflow text editor's formatting tool, you can add many of Textile's markups without having to type them yourself. See also the instructions to the text editor.

Textile guide for MyCashflow merchants

The list below presents the most common and useful Textile markup used in online stores' text fields.

To learn more about Textile and practice using Textile markup, go to http://txstyle.org/

Leave an empty line after each line that contains Textile markup so that the text can be correctly formatted. This doesn't apply to list items and the space left between table rows.

Headings

Make sure that you add a line feed at the end of each heading.

h1. Heading 1

h2. Heading 2

h3. Heading 3

h4. Heading 4

h5. Heading 5

h6. Heading 6

Paragraphs and line feeds

The MyCashflow text editor automatically adds a new paragraph every time you press Enter, but if you'd like to make a difference between a new paragraph and a line feed, use the following markup.

New paragraphPress the Enter key or add p. at the beginning of the new paragraph
Line feedPress Shift+Enter at the end of the line

HTML and Textile

Textile markup is automatically converted into HTML format, but you can also use HTML markup directly in Textile.

<p>This is a paragraph</p>

<p>This is the <em>second paragraph</em></p>

* This is a list, ...

* with ...

* three items, ...

** and one sub-item.

<p>And here you can see two images, one presented by using HTML and another by using Textile.</p>
