DokuWiki Syntax Reference

Welcome to the Volaire LARP Wiki syntax helper page. This guide will walk you through all supported DokuWiki formatting options so you can confidently create clear, consistent, and properly structured pages. Whether you're contributing rules, lore, or updates, this reference will help you stay on brand and in format.

📝 All content on the Volaire LARP Wiki is Out-of-Play (OOP) unless explicitly tagged as In-Play (IP).

✨ Text Formatting

  • Bold → `bold`
  • Italic → `italic`
  • Underline → `underline`
  • Monospace → `monospace`
  • → `strikethrough`
  • Combined: Fancy → `Fancy`

Paragraphs are separated by a blank line.

Use `\\` at the end of a line for a forced line break. Example: This is a sentence
with a break.


Use colons `:` for namespaces.

🧾 Lists

Unordered:

  • ` * Item`
  • ` * Nested item`

Ordered:

  • ` - First`
  • ` - Sub-item`

🧱 Headings & Structure

  • `====== Main Title ======`
  • `===== Section =====`
  • `==== Subsection ====`

A Table of Contents (TOC) is auto-generated with 3+ headings. Disable it using ``.

Add horizontal rules using four dashes:



📸 Media & Images

Inline Image:

  • ``

Resize:

  • ``

Align:

  • `` (centered)
  • `` (right-aligned)

Image Links:

  • ``

🧮 Tables

Syntax:

^ Header A ^ Header B ^
| Row 1 A  | Row 1 B  |
| Row 2 A  | Row 2 B  |

Advanced:

  • `||` = colspan
  • `:::` = rowspan
  • Align with spaces inside cells:

^ Align ^ Center ^ Right |

  | Left     |  Centered  |     Right |

🧪 Code Blocks

Inline: `monospaced` Multiline:

Your code here

With syntax highlighting:

def cast_spell():
    return "Fireball!"

🧷 Footnotes & Quotes

🧙 Plugins You Might Use

Depending on what's enabled by staff, you may have access to syntax plugins such as:

  • `wrap` – formatting and box styles
  • `note` – special callouts
  • `qna` – FAQ display blocks

Check with staff before using a new plugin or syntax style.


⚠️ Final Tips

  • Don't rely on heading-based section links—they can break if the title changes.
  • Use internal links to connect relevant rules and lore.
  • No CamelCase linking—DokuWiki does not auto-link those.
  • Be consistent with formatting—it helps readers (and staff)!
