How do I add HTML while in WYSIWYG mode?
Is there something simple I'm not seeing? I don't see any option to edit the HTML and convert dashes properly. In searching for an answer, there's a reference to SS5 about enabling Smarty Pants, but I don't see anything in version 6 that lets me do that at all.
I just use the keyboard shortcut when creating my post.
I just posted an answer here, how long does it take to show up???
@rick11 I think something must have gone wrong. Usually an answer shows up immediately.
If you switch to Markdown editing in your site configuration, you can add HTML to any post and it will render correctly.
To make that change, go into your site config, click on the gear, then click on general, then scroll down to Markdown Editing.
As an aside - Markdown is a really good way to edit posts. Even if you're not interested in using HTML codes for em-dashes and curly quotes, I highly recommend editing in Markdown.
