Pasting from Docusaurus breaks code formatting blocks

Contribute Bug

The editor breaks the format when pasting text that has code formatting blocks from web sites created with Docusaurus. Instead of the entire block being encapsulated by ``` , there is a closing ``` after the first line and each other line in the code block is prefixed and appended with `. It also puts an empty line in between in line in the code block.

Here’s an example of how a paste looks like of this section: Create a doc | Docusaurus Note how the code blocks are now individual lines instead of a continuous code block. This occurs with any site I’ve tested that’s built with Docusaurus, not just their own site.

Every document has a unique id. By default, a document id is the name of the document (without the extension) relative to the root docs directory.

For example, the ID of greeting.md is greeting, and the ID of guide/hello.md is guide/hello.

website # Root directory of your site

└── docs

├── greeting.md

└── guide

└── hello.md

However, the last part of the id can be defined by the user in the front matter. For example, if guide/hello.md’s content is defined as below, its final id is guide/part1.

---

id: part1

---

Lorem ipsum

The ID is used to refer to a document when hand-writing sidebars, or when using docs-related layout components or hooks.

this happens with raw pastes from GitHub Markdown too FYI

Even in Markdown mode …

(if I paste these into Notepad there are no backticks - so feels like Discourse is adding them)

Can you share an example? I couldn’t reproduce it with some sources I tried.

The issue with the Docusaurus output is that its code block uses one div per line, which wasn’t really expected. I merged a fix today.

Here’s the output of the same copy&pasted selection:

   └── guide
      └── hello.md
