Text formatiting notations do not work

mpu_wt May 8, 2024

Hi,

I found text formatting notations for Jira here:
https://jira.atlassian.com/secure/WikiRendererHelpAction.jspa?section=all

Why they do not work? For example in the link above it is written that *bold* will format text as bold. When I do this my text becomes italc and for bold I have to use double **.
None of the Header formating Notations works, I can not use --delete-- and so on.

I also found a tutorial on youtube that shows additional buttons "Visual" and "Text" that switches the view from formattet displayed text to unformatted with notations. Those buttons are missing too.

Is it a matter of configuration? I do not have admin rights only have user rights.

Thank you in advance

Wondering the same thing. Spent 40 minutes trying to get the proper notation for tables to work. Tried manually, through automation, you name it. The feature simply does not work.
