Welcome to Codidact Meta!
Codidact Meta is the "town hall" (meta-discussion site) for the Codidact community network and the Codidact software. Whether you have bug reports or feature requests, support questions or rule discussions that touch the whole network – this is the site for you.
Permit inline CommonMark inside post titles.
Being able to utilise inline CommonMark inside titles would increase brevity when code needs to be included (like software.codidact.com/posts/294603's "lsusb -v"), because I'd need to utilise quotation marks otherwise. Additionally, the usefulness of italicisation to indicate emphasis remains applicable in titles as much as elsewhere.
Per gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/476513#note_2542099021, precedent exists. I know that GitHub and Forgejo support it, too.

Selected markdown is now rendered in post titles. We support formatting for the following:
-
code(enabled by default) - italic (enabled by default)
- kbd (enabled by default)
- bold
strikethrough- sup
- sub
There is a per-community setting to control which of these seven are rendered in post titles. If your community would like something other than the default, raise it on your Meta category and we can adjust it for you.
