Need a toggle to disable markdown when writing comments

Mike Ely
Mike Ely Apr 28, 2023

I know one can use {code} when desired, but I am far more often needing to paste shell output, code, etc in than I am to need markdown features. What I'm hoping for, honestly what I really want, is functionality in Jira equivalent to the "Compose message in HTML format" toggle on email clients. "Turn off markdown in all my comments until further notice."

Doesn't mean I don't want to see markdown in other comments, just want to reverse the default to not use markdown.

Hi @Mike Ely 

You can try to change the default renderer for the comment field, via the field configuration. This will cause all comments to be simple text. Other than that, there isn't any other functionality that I'm aware of.

Bummer. Having a toggle sure would be nice.
