Markdown on posted Updates is not working #461

Closed adityapk00 closed 5 years ago

adityapk00 commented 5 years ago

I just posted an update to my project here, but it doesn't seem to be rendering the markdown (specifically, the bold tag)

wbobeirne commented 5 years ago

It looks like this is due to the trailing space. After a bit of testing, it looks like bold works fine if there are no trailing spaces, e.g.

**I will not bold **
**But I will**

Github actually behaves this way as well:

I will not bold

But I will

Given that this is a common quirk of markdown, I'm going to close this as it would be pretty high effort to change this behavior in our underlying markdown library.
