Strapi Rich Text - Markdown

Hey,

I’m trying to build a blog and am using Strapi as a headless CMS.
I found Divhunt on Reddit and just connected Strapi.

I am struggling to show a well formated text however.

My content from Strapi, written in Markdown in the Rich Text Editor looks like this.
See the Divhunt image in the first comment.

Anyone any idea how to fix this?

This is how it is shown in Divhunt

Hey,

Can you give me your website url, and I will create a tutorial here with screenshots on how I did it?

Or use the ->markdown function, much better and more reliable, supports more features.

but is there a way to style the markdown as well?
sorry for the many questions!

Hey,

You can style all of the tags separately through child selector. Check out this video:

Hello @dejan and thanks !
yes, however, I still have some hard times

BoldItalic works for example fine (when extracted from strapi and rendered through Divhunt) but I sill have problems, such as
spaces between paragraphs which are in the same “Rich text Markdown” zone.

Would you point me to which Markdown syntax is available when going through the Divhunt rendering ?

Hope the question makes sense…

@Pakic : I’m having some issue with the markdown blank line and blocquote which are not rendered.
