             Summary: Markdown Sink: Multiline metadata incorrectly rendered
                 Key: DOXIA-690
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOXIA-690
             Project: Maven Doxia
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Module - Markdown
            Reporter: Konrad Windszus


Markdown uses the following metadata format: [http://fletcher.github.io/MultiMarkdown-5/metadata.html]

In case a metadata has multiple values on multiple lines it might appear as:
{code:java}
title: Guide to creating a site
author: Brett Porter
Jason van Zyl
date: 2015-07-18 {code}

That leads to incorrect XHTML output as the second line for {{author}} is not detected correctly and instead of being emitted as metadata is emitted as regular paragraph in the HTML body.

Although this might be a glitch of the underlying Markdown Flexmark implementation the metadata format explicitly recommends:

{quote}
 To keep multiline metadata values from being confused with additional metadata, I recommend indenting each new line of metadata. If your metadata value includes a colon, it must be indented to keep it from being treated as a new key-value pair
{quote}
