How to Post Code in Discord PC
Here you will learn how to write code in discord PC for single line block and multiple line blocks.
For Single Line Code Block:
For just one line small word or phrase
- Open your Discord dashboard, discord app, or discord web.
- Navigate to the server, channel, or to any specific user to whom you want to send the discord code.
- Now as you want to use single line block which means your variable must be short like “Echo = single line code block”
- So for this code, you need to type 1 backtick before and after the text code. Backtick key is found at the very left-hand top just below the Esc key.
- So finally our text will be `Echo = single line code block`. Press Enter and now your text has been posted in single line code.
For Multiple line Code Block: –
If your code occupies many lines like posting any sample of java or CSS code, you can use this block by adding 3 backticks before and after the word or phrase.
- Navigate to the Discord server, channel, or to any specific use whom you want to send this sample of code.
- Here we will take an example of PHP code
<?PHP $total discord server = 22: Switch($total discord server) { Case 19: echo “You are Eligible”;
- So now we will add 3 backticks “`before and after the text and hit Enter to send.

Posting a single line or multiple blocks in the Discord phone app is as simple as in PC.
You need to use the same Discord syntax codes for the block which is 1 `backtick for single line and 3 “`backticks for multiple code block.

iPhone:-
- Open discord server, channel, or user where you want to send the code.
- Tap on the chatbox to open the keypad
- Tap 123 key which is at the very left-hand bottom corner, this will display the symbol where you can search for ` backtick.

How to Post Code Blocks with Color in Discord
You can make your code block text more attractive by putting colors on it.
Unfortunately, this feature is only available for PC and for multiple code blocks. You won’t be able to use this on your phone.
To use color for code block text you need to add color code after the “` backticks. For example, if you want to send a text “I love Discord Tips” in Red Color
We will add
“`DIFF
-I love Discord Tips
“`
Enter
Now our Code Block text will look like
-I love Discord Tips
There is much other Discord color syntax which you can try to use different colors
