Textile not completely working in comments
Hi, A friend of mine has just noticed that blockquotes and lists will not appear in comments on a normal TXP 4.0.1 install. Does anyone know anything about that?

Yes, that’s because in comments, textile lite is used. That means no block modifiers, no tables and no lists in comments.

Re: Textile not completely working in comments
can I change that? blockquotes are pretty important for comments where there is no threading.

I think in classTextile.php you can look for line 255 $text = $this->block($text); and move it outside of the if-conditional block. But be aware that people can mess then with your comments.

I unconditionally endorse this sentiment.
More generally, you just want to have blockquotes when discussing stuff, regardless of whether there’s threading or not. Blockquotes are the correct markup for longer quotations.
Some block elements such as headings won’t be missed in comments, but it doesn’t make sense for Textile to support comparatively exotic markup such as deleted text, superscript and — best of all, when you can’t edit your comments — inserted text, and then fail to support basics such as blockquotes and bullets.

Well, it’s only been three weeks since it was checked in… ;) (not lists though)

Re: Textile not completely working in comments
Quite old this thread but I’m currently searching for a way to solve this problem. I just updated to TXP 4.0.3 and now have to face this change of formatting in my Comments. Is there a way to turn on advanced Textile formatting again or is it not?
Textpattern loves me, and I love textpattern.
