Escaping slash in mark-up

[Francis-42]

I have a created 53 cards and text mark-up (specifically bold text) is randomly not working on 8 of them. I cannot make out any regularity, pattern or reason why it should be so on these cards specifically.

Is anyone aware of something I am missing that could be causing this issue? If not, what further info can I provide?

It would be useful to see some examples of what text works and what text does not work, assuming you insert different texts on different cards and that is what makes some fail. It might very well be possible to figure it out based on that alone.

The problem is caused by the use of a single forward slash as text, not for italics (which I was oblivious to since I was only intending on using bold). Is it possible to escape that character? A (currently functioning but possibly dirty) workaround is to put /// which renders as a single /. Interestingly the use of a single asterisk does not cause the same behaviour.

Unfortunately it is an all-or-nothing thing now (with the check-box to enable formatting). Quoting would be useful.

A workaround would be to use an alternative unicode character in your CSV, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction_slash

I kinda 'solved' it like this:

There is a seperate slash column in my csv: If i want to use a slash sign i reference it like this: And then i can get something like this:

Clever workaround. I think I prefer the Fraction Slash workaround, but if it works it works.
