Right-side TOC "macro" doesn't work when using markdown syntax

[joerocklin]

The right-side toc format "macro" (put in quotes because it's not really a macro, but uses the macro markup) uses the format {{>toc}}. The markdown html highlighter seems to take the bare > at the beginning and turn it into >. The regexp that redmine is using to look for the TOC alignment is:

TOC_RE = /<p>\{\{([<>]?)toc\}\}<\/p>/i 

(found in redmine/app/helpers/application_helper.rb on line 881 as of version 2.0.3)

Unfortunately, just changing the TOC_RE definition won't solve the problem as the replace_toc method which uses the regex looks for the > character explicitly. Perhaps a replacement replace_toc method should be supplied with this plugin to handle this case?

I'm confronting the same problem. Is there any progress on this?

[joerocklin]

Oops - hit the wrong button there! I had modified the redmine regexp to make things work on my local installation. If I get some time I'll look into it in the coming weeks to see if there's any way to patch it from the plugin.

any news for this issue ?

Indeed it would be very nice to have this issue fixed...

[joerocklin]

I haven't had a chance to turn my changes into something that can work from the plugin. I do have the setup working with modified redmine code, but I don't think that's an acceptable solution.

I'm happy to report that I figured out how to spell right-side TOC with markdown:

><p>{{>toc}}</p>

Thanks @joerocklin, your clue regarding TOC_RE was most helpful.
