Kibana 4.6.1 Markdown Broken

seth.yes · September 27, 2016, 4:36pm

I'm seeing an issue with Markdown in the newest version of Kibana where the '#' no longer modifies text size;

Anyone know if this is a known issue or know of a fix? Thanks!

Hi Seth,

Markdown requires a space between the hashtags and the header text: https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#header.

For example:

### Packetbeat
 
[Dashboard]
...

So I understand headers worked without the spaces pre-4.6.1? Then I'd open a ticket in github: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new, but to me it seems like this would be expected header behavior for Markdown.

thanks,

You're right, I'm an idiot. And you're correct, the incorrect markdown worked in versions prior to 4.6.1. Thanks @thomasneirynck.
