Discord formats messages with Markdown: **bold**, *italic*, __underline__, ~~strikethrough~~ and ||spoilers||, plus headings, subtext, quotes, lists and code blocks at the start of a line.

The preview follows Discord's rules closely. Headings and subtext only work at the start of a line, and a code block needs its three backticks on their own lines.

Questions about discord formatting

Anything else, write to support@cuedm.com.

How do I show the symbols without formatting?
Put a backslash before them: \*not italic\*.
Do headings work everywhere?
In messages and forum posts, yes. Not in names, and not in most embed fields.
