How to insert a GitHub card in a post?

I’m totally unable to find or remember how I added a GitHub card to a post.

It’s really embarrassing since I did it 3 months ago…

Announcement for new module is waiting for this…! ;-)

@Cato here’s the format:

[ card:username/repository-name ]

Without the spaces!

@ianperrin Btw, where did you find this information? I searched for “NodeBB GitHub card” but it didn’t find anything interesting.

@Cato
I found it originally by using the quote function on a post containing a card and looking at the markdown in the editor.

As these forums use nodebb I believe the card functionality comes from this module - https://github.com/mani95lisa/nodebb-plugin-github-card/ - so there are also some notes in the readme on that repository
