## How to view errors

To view errors, press F9 or type `/console` to open the Roblox console, and upload a screenshot of it in your post.

## How to post code

For long code, upload it as a file rather than a message to avoid flooding the channel.

If you're sharing code as a message, use code blocks — they provide syntax highlighting and read better for multi-line code.

### Inline code blocks

Add a backtick `` ` `` to the beginning and end of the line, producing something like `print("hi")`.

### Multi-line code blocks

Add a blank line at both the start and end of your code, and wrap those lines with three backticks (` ``` `). On the opening line, include the language right after the backticks to enable syntax highlighting.

**Example**:

````markdown theme={null}
```lua
print("hello world")
```
````
