Odd author formatting

[ghost]

Can I let the screenshot speak for itself? (Just updated from 1.7.0 to 1.8.0)

Meta data:

---
author: A. U. Thor
---

argh. 🤦‍♂️ I not exactly sure what is going on here. I think Retype is parsing A. U. Thor as chunk of markdown and is outputting the value as an ordered list.

We will fix. somehow.

Thanks for the report.

We found the issue and will be fixing right away. We are making a v1.8.1 patch release (see #112) and will be including this fix in that patch. The patch will be released very soon, hopefully tomorrow.

As a possible temporary work around for you, removing the space between A. and U. will render correctly. The work around value would be:

---
author: A.U. Thor
---

Once v1.8.1 is released, the work around would not be required and your original value will render correctly.

I will keep this thread updated with our progress.

Hope this helps.

Good work finding it. Good luck fixing it. Meanwhile I'll simply change my pen name.

This issue has been fixed and the fix was included in v1.8.1, which has now been released.

Hope this helps.

Thanks again for reporting this error.

Thanks and yw but now I have this too #116.

We just fixed that too by releasing 1.8.2 at once. Should be good for you now.

Yes 1.8.2 fixes this too, thanks.
