If you're a new user, then welcome to Scratch! If you've been here before, then welcome back! The forum may seem kind of hard to use, so I decided to make a post explaining the forum and all of its cool features.

Making a Post
It's very easy to make a post. First, select a forum. These help sort all of the cool posts people make into organized groups. Next, click the “Make a topic” button. You'll be redirected to the topic editor. From there, you can simply write away, add some code, and do whatever. Once you're done, click the checkmark to see how your post looks. Cool, right? When you press enter, the bottom screen is updated to match your post.

Formatting Text
You can use special tags, kind of like HTML, to format your text. Here are the corresponding tags:

Scratch Blocks
Scratch blocks can be embedded into your post with this code:

when green flag clicked
move (10) steps
say [Hello!] for (2) secs
ask [What's your username?] and wait
if <(answer) = (username)> then
say [Cool!]
else
say [That's not your username!]
end

If the code does not match an existing block, then it will use the “obsolete” formatting. You can force a color of a block by entering two colons (“::”) at the end and a type in lowercase:

motion::motion
looks::looks
sound::sound
pen::pen
events::events
control::control
sensing::sensing
operators::operators
variables::variables
list::list
custom::custom
grey::grey
extension::extension
obsolete::obsolete
custom color [0A0A0A]::#0A0A0A

You can also force the type of a boolean or variable, too.

if <condition::operators> then
set [waht v] to (ddd::motion)
end

This is how you can add more to your blocks:


I hope that helps, because that's about it. I hope you enjoy Scratch!

Edit 1: I've added some more stuff that I've found.

Thx ! I really needed some help!
