I’m an Obsidian newbie (3 months) and really like it, but up to now I mainly used it for email clippings (thunderbird clipper) en web clippings.
I just started writing a “manually written” note(I’m not native English) about my experience of Debian KDE installation and customization on an old PC.
I used some 1st and 2nd level headers, but a new 2nd level header seems to be problematic, in Live Preview it just shows up as plain text, while in Reading view is shows as 2nd level header. When starting this line with a # before typing the 2nd # (slow typing!!) is shows up a list of tags from my vault to choose from, with - of course - stops with the 2nd #.
I attach my short .md-file that shows my problem in the last line (the text is in Dutch).
Debian KDE.md (1.6 KB)
Thanks for any response,
Hans Troost
BTW: I forgot to mention above that I - of course - searched a lot about this problem, starting with the Obsidian Help. Couldn’t find a
I also tried Editing the md-file directly with Notepad++ which gives me the possibility to inspect “special characters” like CR/LF pairs or LF’s alone as well.
What do I do wrong?

Hi, Hans.
You have an open <data> element. You can either close it (before the next Markdown element):
De HDD kan wordt nu onder W10 als <data>-schijf gebruikt met ook de standaard W10 mappen Documenten, Downloads, Afbeeldingen, Videos en Muziek daarop.</data>
Or you can escape it:
De HDD kan wordt nu onder W10 als `<data>`-schijf gebruikt met ook de standaard W10 mappen Documenten, Downloads, Afbeeldingen, Videos en Muziek daarop.
The image below shows how the text works if <data> is escaped with backticks.

Hi lostinbase,
Thanks a lot: those backticks immediately solved my problem.
I was not - and still have to search for - about being something else than plain text.
Best regards, Hans
