It’s said in this post on customizing personal styles that it’s not possible to use an link tag directly because it’s an exception and doesn’t allow any data-attributes. The solution is to use a Markdown [link] to enable the use of attributes, just like this : Code : This [link](https://discourse.org/) use Mardown ! Result : This link use Mardown ! However, for the structure of this specific post (and even for the all discourse), I need to use in html for ease of use, but this seems to prevent any BBCode or markdown from being corectively interpreted. So using markdown links doesn’t work directly in a div. Code : This [link](https://discourse.org/) use Mardown in a div ! Result : This [link](https://discourse.org/) use Mardown in a div ! I find myself unable to use tags, which prevent data-atributes, and unable to use markdown or BBCode, which only work outside divs. Can anyone suggest a solution ? Thank you so much.

I think if you have anything on the line with the opening div you should be fine, e.g.: This is some text This is a very cool [link](https://example.com)! Becomes: Or even a gapped div should work: This is some text This is a very cool [link](https://example.com)! Becomes:

Have a look at [wrap] like in Placeholder Forms, maybe?
