Markdown support has been removed because for many users it was causing issues.

Instead of Markdown, you can use HTML.

To make text italic, use <i> tag:

<i>italic text</i>

To make text bold, use <b> tag:

<b>bold text</b>

I have changed it accordingly, please see below:

<b>Notes</b>

<i>Banking Details<i>

Bank Name: First National Bank
Account Number: 62536667861
Bank Branch Code: 250-655
Reference: Invoice number

<b>Unless prior arrangements have been agreed upon by both parties reduced in writing, interest at 14% will be charged on all overdue accounts!</b>

<i>Thank you for your business.<i>

When i enter it into the notes field, and select ‘set as default’, only ‘Notes’, appear after updating it.

Please assist.

Not sure what you mean but “set default” option is only for newly created invoices. It won’t retrospectively change the old ones.

I am creating a new invoice, when i select customer, below is what is shown in the notes field:

1366×768 82.7 KB

Then i entered the info using html:

1366×768 101 KB

When i select on set default, this is what appears:

1366×768 91 KB

Thereafter, i entered the info on there as well, and clicked on update and i get the ffg. screen:

1366×768 96.3 KB

  1. Click Set default link
  2. Enter default notes to Notes field and click Update

All new sales invoices now will have those default notes pre-filled.

I tried that now, but it still only shows the word ‘notes’

OK, the issue is that Manager won’t accept invalid HTML.

In your case, look at the second line, it’s:

<i>Banking Details<i>

but it should be:

<i>Banking Details</i>

Thank you, i have amended the notes, however, the lines that i want to be italic don’t appear when i update:

Paste here again HTML markup you are using.

<b>Notes</b>

<i>Banking Details</i>

Bank Name: First National Bank
Account Number: 62536667861
Branch Code: 250-655
Reference: Invoice Number

<b>Unless Prior Arrangements Have Been Agreed Upon By Both Parties Reduced In Writing, Interest At 14% Will Be Charged On All Overdue Account!</b>

<i>Thank You For Your Business.</i>

I just realized <i> is not supported. I will fix it but in the meantime, you can use <em> tag instead which will achieve the same result.

<b>Notes</b>

<em>Banking Details</em>

Bank Name: First National Bank
Account Number: 62536667861
Branch Code: 250-655
Reference: Invoice Number

<b>Unless Prior Arrangements Have Been Agreed Upon By Both Parties Reduced In Writing, Interest At 14% Will Be Charged On All Overdue Account!</b>

<em>Thank You For Your Business.</em>

The <i> and <b> tags have been deprecated in HTML in favour of the <em> and <strong> tags. They work exactly the same way:

<em>Hello, world!</em> gives Hello, world!
<strong>Hello, world!</strong> gives Hello, world!

Some programs are backwards compatible. Apparently, whatever presentation engine Manager uses is not. Try the new tags instead.

Jon, thank you.

@Letap,

Here you are:

This is regular text. <span style="font-size:50%;">This is small text.</span> <span style="font-size:200%;">This is big text.</span>

P.S. Google is your friend!
