Description strangequark 2021-11-18 11:14:39 UTC

SUMMARY
Currently, when text is inputted into the description of an event with spaces before it, it renders as code. I don't think there's much of a usecase to render text as code in a calendar application, so the ability to turn this off would be nice.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  In the description, give a couple of spaces before writing

OBSERVED RESULT
The text renders as plaintext, like the formatting for code in most places.

EXPECTED RESULT
An ability to turn this off

The formatting used is markdown, this allows outside of rendering code to also add link, make text bold or italic and add lists. We unfortunately can't stop rendering code but still render the other elements, so I don't really see a way to fix this issue. Outside of maybe completely disabling all the other rendering options at the same time.

Ideally we should probably support rich text editing
