Post Format
Post Formatting
Format 1: With Title (Recommended)
`
Your Awesome Title
This is the content of your post.
It can span multiple lines and include links, emojis, etc.
Second paragraph continues here.
`
Result:
– Title: “Your Awesome Title”
– Content: Everything after the empty line
Format 2: Without Title
`
This is a longer text without any special formatting. It will be imported with the first 5 words as the title.
`
Result:
– Title: “This is a longer text without” (first 5 words)
– Content: Full original text
Formatting Tips
✅ Do:
– Keep titles under 60 characters
– Use emojis in content (they work great)
– Add line breaks for better readability
– Include links (they become clickable)
❌ Don’t:
– Use HTML tags (they get stripped)
– Put empty lines in the middle of content
– Make titles longer than 100 characters
