Table not render when use Redcarpet in Jekyll GitHub Pages?

Question

As of maruku engine (the default), writing table like

surround text, etc.

| Tables        | Are           | Cool  |
| ------------- |:-------------:| -----:|
| col 3 is      | right-aligned | $1600 |
| col 2 is      | centered      |   $12 |
| zebra stripes | are neat      |    $1 |

surround text...

would render correctly.

But when I switch to redcarpet (add markdown: redcarpet into _config.yml), the table no longer rendered, both localhost and on GitHub Pages.

Did I do something wrong?

Answer 1

Adding only markdown: redcarpet into _config.yml is not enough, It's also need the extensions part, e.g.

markdown: redcarpet
redcarpet:
  extensions: ["no_intra_emphasis", "fenced_code_blocks", "autolink", "tables", "with_toc_data"]
