Formatting Code Samples in Community
If you need to include code blocks in your posts, formatting them properly makes it easier for all to read. If you post JSON as straight text, you get something like this: [ { “Contacts”: [ “First”, “Last”, “Street”, “City”, “Zip” ] } ] When in edit mode, you see indents, but they don’t carry over to the published topic. Markdown formatting uses three backticks ``` to enclose code blocks. You can type them before your code snippet and after to get the code formatting. [ { "Contacts": [ "First", "Last", "Street", "City", "Zip" ] } ] Alternately, you select your code snippet and use the preformatted text option in the toolbar ( </>) to get another type of formatting: [ { "Contacts": [ "First", "Last", "Street", "City", "Zip" ] } ] Either option makes it easier for others to read code snippets.Marking Threads as Resolved in the Community
We have enabled the option to mark a thread as Resolved. The limitations are: only the person that started the thread can mark a response as a solution. only one post can be marked as a resolution even if there is more than one way to do something. To mark something as a resolution, look for the little checkbox icon near the heart icon within the response. Once selected, the response is marked as the solution. When viewing the list of topics, a checkmark appears in front of the topic title. If you marked a post in error, just click on it again or click on another response if that is what you intended to do.Opening Links in Community Posts in a New Tab
If you find that links within Community Posts are opening in the same tab, you can go into your user settings by click on your avatar in the upper right corner, then on the Preferences icon. Scroll down to Desktop Notifications and select Open all external links in a new tab.
