The developer website has a set of custom tags available to help make your project website more informative in an easy fashion. These tags can be used on any page that you edit on the website. These tags will render information available from other project hosting services. You do not have to use any of these tags. They are here for convenience only. There are also a set of templates available to display standard information.

All tags, except the file release tags, can be given a 'header' attribute. The 'header' attribute can be given a value from 0 to 6. 0 represents no header and 1-6 represent headers of decreasing size. This is implemented using HTML header tags.
Syntax: <maillists header="6">project_short_name</maillists>

<maillists header="6">forge</maillists>
