It seems to have something to do with one of the tasks we did. I'll check it out later.

I have the same behavior with the last version of vue-editor.

[freegroup]

I have the same behaviour with the pure js version. Is there any branch / fix available?

[jwlee1108]

This feature makes many problem. Due to the structure of the current editor, it is difficult to deal with it. so we'll rollback commit over this issue soon. @jajugoguma takes this issue.

I saw above that you guys are already working on this, but is there any workaround or mitigation available to avoid this error?

• thanks for this great piece of software

[MoritzGlantz]

Also interested in an solution :)

[freegroup]

In the meantime I'm using a mitigation in my project. It is not perfect, but works for me

in global scope ( https://github.com/freegroup/electra/blob/main/common/public/js/polyfill.js#L8-L20 )

let tokenMap = {
    "<strong>": "**",
    "</strong>": "**",
    "<em>": "*",
    "</em>": "*"
}
String.prototype.tuiMarkdownFix = function(){
    var re = new RegExp(Object.keys(tokenMap).join("|"),"g");

    return this.replace(re, function(matched){
        return tokenMap[matched];
    });
}

when fetching the markdown from the editor (https://github.com/freegroup/electra/blob/main/author/public/js/editor/wysiwyg/editor.js#L45 )

let markdown = this.tuiEditor.getMarkdown().tuiMarkdownFix()

[MoritzGlantz]

That’s cool @freegroup! I thought about doing something similar. This does not consider markdown code blocks and inline code, right?

[freegroup]

codeblocks, which contains <strong> or one of the other tags, gets converted...unfortunately. But for my usecase, it is pretty fine.

[jwlee1108]

We forgot to create a release, see related issues (v3.2.2)

[freegroup]

good news! Thanks. is this available via npm as well?

[jwlee1108]

It was actually published to npm last week. we missed writing the release notes.

[MoritzGlantz]

3.2.2 seems to fix this. At least in my case.

@jwlee1108 so was it fixed or not? Perhaps we could close this issue if it was?
