oz1cz I need to disable a few of the syntax elements in the editor. (For example, I want to remove the syntax feature that formats ">" as a <blockquote> when the ">" is the first character on a line.) What is the best way to disable certain syntax elements? Do I need to write a plugin that overrides the standard syntax?
michaelsy The usual way is to use the no-formatting-tag for selective suppression of the wiki syntax: <nowiki> ... </nowiki> or %% ... %% https://www.dokuwiki.org/wiki:syntax#no_formatting
oz1cz <nowiki> disables all formatting. I only want to disable certain commands. Also I want to do it without changing the contents of the document. (The reason for this is that the documents are imported from an external source, and I really don't want to modify them.)
turnermm In the case of the blockquote you can remove the formatting with CSS. See basic.less in tpl/dokuwiki/css
oz1cz I can use CSS to remove the blockquote formatting, but then I need to reinsert the ">" using CSS or JavaScript, which is doable but tedious. I have chosen to create a plugin that overrides the undesired formatting commands. I think that's the cleanest solution. Thanks for your input!
