How to stop # sign formating text

John_Buchanan

Hi

In a jira text filed from a template, if you type in #-####-#  for example,   after it's saved in jira it becomes ###### with a dark line through.

Is there a way for jira to NOT change this, I thing it's something do with # = a header in Jira so is it possible to stop # sign from doing this?

The problem is actually the "-" which is wiki markup for strikethrough. But you can escape the - . (or put in a noformat block.)

So try 

#\-####\-#
