xnooby How do I create indented text, something like the equivelant of indenting with 2-3 tabs? When I indent with spaces, the text is turned in to a code block. If I create a non-parse block, I think it is also a colored box. I wanted to use "whitespace" to make the pages look better, but I do not want to create a "block" of code. thanks!
chriss You can alter the style sheets for your wiki. Also see the div-span plugin. It allows you to wrap wiki content in DIV/SPAN with specified class. The style of which you can control in your css.
rrandall This is a very old thread... BUT if you only need one tab, just install the "WRAP" Plugin (See http://dokuwiki.org/plugin:wrap), and then insert the following syntax: <WRAP indent>your text</WRAP>
