Markdown Newline Uses Bulletpoints?

In markdown, when pressing enter, for some reason instead of going to the next line and automatically doing ’ >‘, instead it uses ’ -’ which creates a bullet point for some reason.

IMHO, it will be more helpful for the developers to identify the potential issue if this report follows the bug report template.

I’m not sure if this is the same as the OP, but one of my Obsidian vaults (Version 1.8.4 (Installer 1.8.4)) just started doing the following today:

Within a code block (editing in source mode) it now automatically creates a list after pressing enter on an indented line, example (going to document it since the code below is going to render):

  1. create a code block with ```
  2. type echo on the first line (no indent) and press enter, you get a new line
  3. type a sincle SPACE followed by echo and press enter and you get a new line indented by one space
  4. On this line add an additional SPACE (i.e. 2 space indent) and type echo. Press enter and the next line begins as a list with -
echo
 echo
  echo
- 

What’s strange, I can’t duplicate this behavior in my other vaults. I even created a new vault, enabled all of the same plugins and settings that I can think of and still can’t reproduce it.

moved to help for not following the bug report template.

If you do find reproducible steps, please open a new bug report and follow the template. Thanks
