I belief the problem is when you click on “Preformatted text” it just format’s the first line (with the 4 spaces) in a script what makes sens for a one-liner.
But for a whole script it would make sens that by clicking on it it comes with the 4 back ticks before and after the script. for example (without the blanks of course):
` ` ` `
(paste your text here)
` ` ` `
At least that was my problem the first time i posted more than one line of Preformatted text </>.
Where did the post one come from ? No difference between that and external. When I originally inserted it all my comments were made to subtitles (markup language).
Oh, looks like @hhlp edited it in. The trick is the backticks as @ilikelinux suggests.
Since you’ve confirmed that the inlined one is the same, I’m going to move the surrounding discussion here to the Site Feedback category to keep it from cluttering the question.
