Indus Theme

This theme was created by scutoid studios and VivamusLudio, based on the Liminal theme by stephlynch and etoisle.

The icons for the options at the bottom of the page are from the Backrooms Chinese Wiki, licensed under CC-BY-SA-3.0. The theme's base is Black Highlighter by Woedenaz, licensed under CC-BY-SA-3.0.

Examples

This is the Image Block component.

A horizontal rule can be created with 5 hyphens "-----" and extends across the whole page if it's not placed inside anything (eg a blockquote). The lines separating sections of this document are horizontal rules.

---

Titles can be created by putting between one and six plus "+" at the start of the line

+ Theme Code

This is all of the theme code normally running on the site, except for the fact that the theme page also imports the user-flairs page to give fancy names to staff. This code doesn't do that so it can be imported by other branches, which will want to have their staff highlighted.

This theme was co-created by JamiMyst, stellate, and scutoid studios for the Industrialization Canon! Tab and table code was also used from VivamusLudio's themes, so credit to him as well. Lastly, I can thank DrBobtail for the header gradient code!

To import this theme into your page, but the following code anywhere inside it:

[[include theme:indus]]
