Default styling is plain text.

Should be larger font, to differentiate from the original body text.

Soundcloud Block

For example:
https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/1253913319&color=%23ff5500&auto_play=false
that is put into former platform will not work.

You need to

a) see if you could use a new sharing url, for example:
https://soundcloud.com/workdaysc/elevating-the-employee-experience-with-mobile (and add utms if you want to)
b) you need to copy and paste the iframe into the Custom HTML block to make it work. (This is how its done in former platform as well but you didn’t have to put in all code around the iframe)

Preformatted

Here I write some preformatted text

Table

Col 1 Header Label	Col 2 Header Label	Col 1 Header Label
text	bold	italic
All other text formatting options are in the block as well as	editing table functionality which gives you the	possibility to insert and remove rows or columns

Verse

This is a strange one – no need. But would be fun to see Microsofts poems or Foundry song lyrics… Anyway a famous Haiku – “The Old Pond” by Matsuo Bashō:

An old silent pond

A frog jumps into the pond—

Splash! Silence again.
