Is it possible to override markdown configuration (`unsafe=true`) for a single page?

[Here](https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/#override-global-markdown-configuration) the documentation suggests it’s possible, but I cannot find any detailed description.

I tried adding this to content’s front matter (and various variations of it), but it didn’t help:

```auto
[markup]
  [markup.goldmark]
    [markup.goldmark.renderer]
      unsafe = true

```

The passage you reference refers to BlackFriday, the old renderer.

Yeah but I hoped that if there’s a way to override global config, it may somehow automatically work for Goldmark too…

I’ve solved my issue differently, but I’ve just realized that it’s possible to have `unsafe` shortcode that would just contain `{{ .Inner }}`, that way it’s possible to insert html tags without even setting unsafe=true for the entire page.

E.g.

1. Create `layout/shortcodes/unsafe.html` with the following content: `{{ .Inner }}`.
2. In markdown use it like this:

```auto
{{< unsafe >}}
   <div class="special-formatting">
{{< /unsafe >}}
blah blah
{{< unsafe >}}
   </div>
{{< /unsafe >}}

```
