Using Frontmatter in Markdown files

Seafile Server
1

Hi,
I like to store documentation in markdown format on seafile.

I often use “frontmatter” in my markdown files to store some
attribute data.

“Frontmatter” means that the markdown file starts with a section like the
following before the first heading:

title: My Title
date: 2025-03-30

When these files are rendered on the web, the frontmatter lines
now are rendered in big fonts. Obviously because they are interpreted
as a headline like in:

My Headline

This is not the behavior I want. And it has been different
in former versions of the Seafile server.

Is it possible to change this?

It could be:

  • hiding the “frontmatter”
  • formatting the “frontmatter” with normal font

Thanks for reading.
