How to insert suit symbols?

It’s simple. Just insert into your text !c for clubs, !d for diamonds, !h for hearts and !s for spades – just like using BBO Chat.

What about styling?

If you now a bit css, you can edit bridgehelper css to suit your needs. If not, wait for an update – there will be a possibility to set custom styles through the dashboard.

How to insert a board diagram?

Write in your text:
[deal nr=’25’ hand=”A542.A32.A10865.K;.K8654.QJ10.Q7432;KJ109.QJ.K98753.J]
Above will result in:
– board diagram with board number 25, vulnerabilities and dealer set accordingly
– hands above are separated by semicolon (;) and suits by full stops (.)
– North’s hand:
S: A542
H: A32
D: A10865
C: K
– East’s hand:
S: – (notice starting with .)
H: K8654
D: QJ10
C: Q7432
– South’s hand”
S: KJ109
H: QJ
D: K98753
C: J
– West’s hand with remaining 13 cards

If you want to provide only partial board diagram (e.x. endplay), you have to enter at least one of west’s cards.
