Smart quotes

[tolmasky]

Just a heads up I think Jekyll by default smart-quotes which is what's causing this example to give a syntax error: http://nmotw.in/hide-secrets/

I believe adding this to _config.yml will fix it:

kramdown: smart_quotes: ["apos", "apos", "quot", "quot"]

@tolmasky Thanks for reporting! Is there something missing here ?

Hi I was trying to reproduce this locally but when I download this repo and run jekyll serve I get:

Configuration file: /Users/tolmasky/Desktop/nmotw.in/_config.yml Deprecation: The 'pygments' configuration option has been renamed to 'highlighter'. Please update your config file accordingly. The allowed values are 'rouge', 'pygments' or null.

I've tried changing pigments to hight highlighter but then it just complains that pygments.rb doesn't exist or something. I'm not familiar with Ruby so I'm kind of stuck on figuring out what's going on.

So I got it working after some ruby version stuff, but I don't see hide-secrets. Is that one in a branch or something?

[tolmasky]

Oh I see you've tackled it already, is it working for you now? (I still see them as smart on the site itself).

I had the same problem here and had solved it, but can't recall the fix :/

Could you upload the hide-secrets post? I think it didn't actually make it into this commit: https://github.com/hemanth/nmotw.in/commit/92d8fe553b42ff7a1eb0432b6d5209eaa17ea7ff

Deployed it still the same, strange.

Having looked into it more, the reason the smart quotes are still happening is that they are being explicitly added with rubypants. If you take out rubypants it works fine.

Bingo! That reminded me of this answer.

Thanks! It's fine now.
