adding markdown abilities on description field in the portal's form

[ben friedman]

Hello,

any suggestions how its possible to add markdown capabilities on the request's description field in the customers' portal? (much like this field has when adding a question to the portal)

i know its possble to use special chars, but im looking to UI interface.

this is for a cloud instance. 

Thanks

@ben friedman - hi Ben! This currently isn't possible, and there's no workaround that I'm aware of. I'd consider adding a help prompt to your Description field to let customers know they can manually add markdown (asterisks for bold, for example).

There's an open suggestion to get a markdown editor for customers, you can vote on it here: JSDCLOUD-9072
