Preventing plus signs from causing emphasis (noob question)

mead_troy

Is there a way to turn off Textile markup in my character pages? Or at least to signify that a passage should be presented as plain text? I'm trying to use stat blocks that have plus signs in them, but every time I do the markup assumes I want the passage underlined.

Thanks in advance, I'm not very good at this yet.

You can add the following to your custum css to prevent that if you are an ascendant member.

ins { color:inherit; text-decoration:inherit;} /* Plus sign no longer underlines */

ins:before { content:'+';} /* Plus sign no longer underlines */

ins:after { content:'+';} /* Plus sign no longer underlines */

 

I think the free membership workaround is putting a space after the plus sign.

Thanks. I haven't yet been sold on whether I'm going to be using this enough to make upgrading worthwhile, so I'll probably just use the workaround for now.

Even though I have an Ascendant account, I use the add-a-space workaround, cuz' it's not hard to do and sometimes I DO want things underlined.

If I want to underline something, I created a span class="u". Since it is more often that I'll want to use plus signs next to a number, than I'll want to underline something. That does depend on the system I'm using however.

CSS

.u {text-decoration: underline;}

HTML

In this sentence <span class="u">underline me</span>.
