Strikethrough option?

Hi Torsten,

I like the new forums, but is there any way to do a strikethrough like on the old forums? I have tried to figure out a work-around but have been unsuccessful. The strikethrough is very useful when correcting essays so the users can see exactly what words or phrases I crossed out.

Hi TJ, thanks a lot for your feedback, we’ll look into the strike-through option and get back to you soon.

Hey @Luschen, the forum uses a formatting engine called Markdown. To do a strikethrough, you should use ~~two tildas~~, which will render like this.

Thanks for your response, but I’m still getting just the tildes, ~~ like this ~~

With ~~ spaces ~~ after and before the text it won’t work, without them it looks like this.
HTH.
