Markdown widget not wrapping output with HTML

[danpantinople]

Hi, I'm using your boilerplate for my project and is using many markdown widgets on a single collection.

In my config.yml, i have this as one of my fields: - { label: "Description", name: "featureDescription", widget: "markdown" } I have a multi-paragraph content which then saves to my file.md's frontmatter like this:

and using {{ projectInformation.projectDescription }} it gets displayed in my site like this:

Also saw this in the netlifycms doc: Please note: The markdown widget outputs a raw markdown string. Your static site generator may or may not render the markdown to HTML automatically. Consult with your static site generator's documentation for more information about rendering markdown.

Can you help me out? Thanks!

I think you're going to need to use a markdown filter like markdown-it to do what you're asking.

Here is an example of it being configured with Eleventy, it may help.
