Hi, In the past it was possible to escape shortcode syntax e.g. in a code block like this: thegeeklab/hugo-geekdoc/blob/debug-renderstring/exampleSite/content/en/shortcodes/katex.md --- title: KaTeX --- ## Example {{< columns >}} ```latex {{</* myshortcode */>}} ``` {{< /column…

[image] xoxys: Any idea? In your case .Inner comes from a content file in /content which has already rendered any shortcode. So the string {{</* myshortcode */>}} is now rendered to {{< myshortcode >}} And then, when you pass {{< myshortcode >}} to RenderString the comments are lost and Hugo…

Well I want to render markdown in the {{< columns >}} shortcodes content. Removing RenderString results in completely unrendered markdown: [image]

Thanks for reopening the issue, I’m also not sure yet how a fix could look like.

I wish I’d found this discussion, rather than opening another one. [image] .Page.RenderString throws error when rendering an escaped shortcode call dev this was originally targeted at 0.102, but it seems like it didn’t make the cut. what is current guidance on how affecte…

From my perspective over here in the cheap seats with relatively little understanding of the guts of things (IOW CAVEAT EMPTOR) it feels to me like there needs to be a mechanism to ask renderstring to render all of a section of content exactly once… which would involve a reordering of content proc…
