I've modified the blog template to suit my needs, which includes changes to the entries.html template so that teasers are shown in the "just_titles" branch (should rename it soon, I guess).
Now I've noticed that {{teaser}} is taken from my entry metadata as desired but that markdown formatting in it isn't parsed. Is there a way to achieve that?
(Note: If I don't specifiy the teaser in the metadata, escaped HTML from the entry itself is shown. Would be great if that would not be escaped...)
Answered 2 years ago · Improve this answerOne workaround for your specific case is to define the teaser inside your post content using the {{more}} tag, consider this post for example:
Your *post* here, this part in the teaser, which will be converted from markdown to HTML...
{{more}}
The rest of your post here, also in markdown...
More generally, it's not yet possible to convert custom metadata from Markdown to HTML but I would like to make it so. Perhaps a {{#markdown}}...{{/markdown}} template function could work? Consider the following proposed syntax:
{{#markdown}}
{{{metadata.teaser}}}
{{/markdown}}
