Issue with pulse message format

[Ramesh_Reddy_Battini]

Hello Guys,

We came across a below scenario where Pega OOTB logic is converting my message into a wrong format. Please suggest if you faced and fixed this somehow.

Issue:

1. Go to Pulse section.

2. Type ‘+ Test’ in start conversation field.

3. Click Post.

Expected: My message should be posted as ‘+ Test’.

Actual: My message is posted as ‘• Test’.

Why Pega is converting my + to a bullet point

As per Pega formatting styles, it should convert * to a bullet point.

@RameshBattini Pega Pulse follows Markdown’s syntax. Unordered lists can be created using dashes, asterisks, or plus signs. You can use the backslash as an escape character, for example:

This is not a list
\+tea
\+milk

But this is
+tea
+milk

Here is the result:
