Ok so some of the minor formatting issues you guys have mentioned with markdown such as a lack of space around bullet points or the inconsistent size of headers has now been fixed. The rich-text rendering and markdown should look a lot nicer now.

@design_RG This should address all the formatting issues you brought up (other than the fact that it doesnt work in dark theme, working on that next).. let me know if it renders agreeably for you now.

@freemo Thank you!!

I already noticed the Hidden URL is working perfectly, how on to try some Block Quote?

Ok so some of the minor formatting issues you guys have mentioned with markdown such as a lack of space around bullet points or the inconsistent size of headers has now been fixed. The rich-text rendering and markdown should look a lot nicer now.

And let’s see how it appears.

Header 1 is TOO big for most cases.

Header 2 works well as a Post Title

Header 3 is good for Subtitles.

love…

@design_RG Headers 1 to 6 are all implemented with header 1 being 150% font size and each header drops by 5% with header 6 at 125%. They also have a gradient of bolding added on top of that.

@freemo Thank you.

Here’s how the post above renders on Pinafore. And on Mastodon web.

@design_RG This is odd. I just switched to a dark theme to fix the dark theme issue you mentioned but turns out all the markdown is rendering just fine for me in dark theme.

Which theme, exactly, are you on that wont render for you?

ยท ยท 1 ยท 0 ยท 0

@freemo I am using the Mastodon Default Theme, Full Width (Dark)

In Firefox (Waterfox).

@design_RG That is very strange indeed, I am using that theme and it seems to work just fine for me.

  • Bullet points work
  • As does quoting
  • and everything else

hmm…

See, quotes work just fine

This all should work for me (or did a moment ago) in dark theme you mentioned.

@freemo Just checked and…

It renders fine in MS Edge Chromium. So I suspected it could be a FF issue…

But then, it renders fine in a Private Window in FF, just shows the default white theme. Identical to Edge actually.

FF Screenshot, Priv Mode attached.

@freemo So it’s something in the Dark Theme, specifically, I think.

I am not even using the Collapsed Mastodon add on or any other extension which could be changing it.

@design_RG Very strange.. ill have to install firefox here to see if i can replicate it.

@freemo And I logged into MS Edge to see how it would render with the Dark Theme associated with my account.

It looks identical to the FF screenshot. But don’t spend much time with this, it might be a minor, niche problem.
