Treehouse TeacherHi there! Thanks for posting the link to the challenge and your code. While your code isn't really wrong it's not what the challenge is looking for. Keep in mind that challenges are extremely picky. You've misspelled "Portfolio" and each one of your items should start with a capital letter. Starting them with a lower case letter will cause the challenge to fail.
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Portfolio</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</nav>
Happy coding!

1,578 PointsHello, Jennifer Nordell, I noticed that you were a site moderator and was wondering if you could go over the process and steps that you took in order to post a smoothly looking area that displays your code in.
I would love to (in the future), use it to help others in demonstrating code.

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Stephanie Webster! It's pretty easy and a little fun to be honest. Start by typing three backticks on a new line followed by the name of the language you'll be coding in. For example, html, css, java, swift etc. It will look like this: ```html. Then insert one extra blank line and start your code. When the code is in place add one more blank line and finish it off with three more backticks ```.
If you forget any of these instructions, you can always take a look at the Markdown Cheatsheet link at the bottom of the "Add an Answer" section. It also contains some tips and tricks for more generic formatting of the text in your posts.
Hope this helps!
