  • The error is thrown whether or not there is any ruby text ({...|...}) in the post.
  • This post https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-markdown-extensions-not-working-after-latest-discourse-upgrade/294155/1 seemed to have a similar issue, but I updated the extension to .js and it did not get fixed.
  • I also updated the markdown-it-ruby plugin to the latest version 1.1.1 by copying the plugin into the file /assets/javascripts/vendor/markdown-it-ruby.js in my repo.

Thanks in advance. Sorry for the links, I can only post 2.

The plugin likely needs to be updated to properly hook the discourse-markdown-it.
