Jekyll markdown strikethrough

I can't get Jekyll's markdown processor to listen to me. These all display as is:

1.  ~Call Mom today.~

1.  ~~Call Mom today.~~

This just makes the internal text disappear:

1.  <s> Call Mom today.</s>

I'm using Jekyll Bootstrap pretty much out of the box.

Solution

  • Perhaps this

    markdown: redcarpet
redcarpet:
  extensions: ["strikethrough"]

    Github flavored Markdown and pygments highlighting in Jekyll

    Or

    echo '1. <s>Call Mom today.</s>' | kramdown

    Result

    <ol>
  <li>
    <s>Call Mom today.</s>
  </li>
</ol>

    Note if you are using jekyll --watch this config change will not be picked up; you will need to restart Jekyll.
