Admonitions
Admonitions, also known as call-outs, are an excellent choice for including side content without significantly interrupting the document flow. Material for MkDocs provides several different types of admonitions and allows for the inclusion and nesting of arbitrary content.
Configuration
This configuration enables admonitions, allows to make them collapsible and to
nest arbitrary content inside admonitions. Add the following lines to
mkdocs.yml:
markdown_extensions:
- admonition
- pymdownx.details
- pymdownx.superfences
See additional configuration options:
Admonition icons
Each of the supported admonition types has a distinct icon, which can be changed
to any icon bundled with the theme, or even a custom icon. Add the following
lines to mkdocs.yml:
theme:
icon:
admonition:
<type>: <icon> # (1)!
-
Enter a few keywords to find the perfect icon using our icon search and click on the shortcode to copy it to your clipboard:
??? example "Expand to show alternate icon sets"
=== ":octicons-mark-github-16: Octicons"
``` yaml
theme:
icon:
admonition:
note: octicons/tag-16
abstract: octicons/checklist-16
info: octicons/info-16
tip: octicons/squirrel-16
success: octicons/check-16
question: octicons/question-16

danger: octicons/zap-16
bug: octicons/bug-16

```
=== ":fontawesome-brands-font-awesome: FontAwesome"

failure: fontawesome/solid/bomb
danger: fontawesome/solid/skull
bug: fontawesome/solid/robot
example: fontawesome/solid/flask
quote: fontawesome/solid/quote-left
```
Usage
Admonitions follow a simple syntax: a block starts with !!!, followed by a
single keyword used as a type qualifier. The content of the block follows on
the next line, indented by four spaces:
!!! note
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
!!! note
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
Changing the title
By default, the title will equal the type qualifier in titlecase. However, it can be changed by adding a quoted string containing valid Markdown (including links, formatting, ...) after the type qualifier:
!!! note "Phasellus posuere in sem ut cursus"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
!!! note "Phasellus posuere in sem ut cursus"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
Removing the title
Similar to changing the title, the icon and title can be omitted entirely by adding an empty string directly after the type qualifier. Note that this will not work for collapsible blocks:
!!! note ""
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
!!! note ""
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
Collapsible blocks
When Details is enabled and an admonition block is started with ??? instead
of !!!, the admonition is rendered as a collapsible block with a small toggle
on the right side:
??? note
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
??? note
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
Adding a + after the ??? token renders the block expanded:
???+ note
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
???+ note
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
Inline blocks
Admonitions can also be rendered as inline blocks (e.g., for sidebars), placing
them to the right using the inline + end modifiers, or to the left using
only the inline modifier:
=== ":octicons-arrow-right-16: inline end"
!!! info inline end "Lorem ipsum"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et
euismod nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo
purus auctor massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
``` markdown
!!! info inline end "Lorem ipsum"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod nulla.
Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat
finibus, justo purus auctor massa, nec
semper lorem quam in massa.
```
Use `inline end` to align to the right (left for rtl languages).
=== ":octicons-arrow-left-16: inline"
!!! info inline "Lorem ipsum"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et
euismod nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo
purus auctor massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
``` markdown
!!! info inline "Lorem ipsum"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod nulla.
Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat
finibus, justo purus auctor massa, nec
semper lorem quam in massa.
```
Use `inline` to align to the left (right for rtl languages).
Important: admonitions that use the inline modifiers must be declared
prior to the content block you want to place them beside. If there's
insufficient space to render the admonition next to the block, the admonition
will stretch to the full width of the viewport, e.g., on mobile viewports.

the default type, and thus fallback for unknown type qualifiers, is note1:

Customization
Classic admonitions
Prior to version , admonitions had a slightly different appearance:
!!! classic "Note"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
If you want to restore this appearance, add the following CSS to an additional style sheet:
=== ":octicons-file-code-16: docs/stylesheets/extra.css"
``` css
.md-typeset .admonition,
.md-typeset details {
border-width: 0;
border-left-width: 4px;
}
```
=== ":octicons-file-code-16: mkdocs.yml"
``` yaml
extra_css:
- stylesheets/extra.css
```
Custom admonitions
If you want to add a custom admonition type, all you need is a color and an
*.svg icon. Copy the icon's code from the .icons folder
and add the following CSS to an additional style sheet:
=== ":octicons-file-code-16: docs/stylesheets/extra.css"
``` css
:root {

After applying the customization, you can use the custom admonition type:
!!! pied-piper "Pied Piper"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et
euismod nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo
purus auctor massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
!!! pied-piper "Pied Piper"
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla et euismod
nulla. Curabitur feugiat, tortor non consequat finibus, justo purus auctor
massa, nec semper lorem quam in massa.
-
Previously, some of the supported types defined more than one qualifier. For example, authors could use
summaryortldras alternative qualifiers to render anabstractadmonition. As this increased the size of the CSS that is shipped with Material for MkDocs, the additional type qualifiers are now all deprecated and will be removed in the next major version. This will also be mentioned in the upgrade guide. ↩︎
