Hey Everyone,

Thanks in advanced for your help on this. Is there a way to use Superscript and Subscript in the title of a blog post similar to the Markdown approach that is used in the post body?

It doesn’t seem to work the same. Has anyone else ran into this problem?

Bryce

No, it’s not currently possible to do that. Post titles are stored as plain text rather than rich-text or html.

Thanks for the response! What do you think would be the best way to go about building in this functionality?

It would need changes to core and would be a breaking change - plaintext titles are used and expected in a lot of places outside of the front-end display context. There would need to be up-front design work for how it would work across the APIs and any knock-on effects for API consumers would need to be taken into account.
