Markdown support in media captions #184

Closed SeanFromIT closed 4 years ago

SeanFromIT commented 4 years ago

It appears both HTML tags and markdown are ignored for image captions. It would be nice to process the caption text as markdown before display.

Use cases I'm thinking of: bold line breaks

It took me a moment to realise what you meant, but that sounds like a great feature!

We should already have support for recursively parsing because of templating support.

Just to check, you mean adding markdown support to image captions in the ![Caption here](url here) syntax?

We already have a custom implementation of that actually 'cause of some extra syntax I've added, so it shouldn't be too tough to add (though you'll need to trigger the custom implementation by doing ![caption](url | float_direction) or ![caption](url | float_direction | size) - ![caption](url) won't work on it's own without modification - note to self).

I'm running on the assumption that my previous comment is the correct assumption - this is not implemented!

Regarding the custom image implementation - we don't need to worry about this because you have to trigger it to use the .... | caption ) bit to get the caption to display in the first place.

Sorted!
