## Configure Markup
{{< new-in "0.60.0" >}}
See [Goldmark](#goldmark) for settings related to the default Markdown handler in Hugo.
Below are all markup related configuration in Hugo with their default settings:
{{< code-toggle config="markup" />}}
**See each section below for details.**
### Goldmark
[Goldmark](https://github.com/yuin/goldmark/) is from Hugo 0.60 the default library used for Markdown. It's fast, it's [CommonMark](https://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/) compliant and it's very flexible. Note that the feature set of Goldmark vs Blackfriday isn't the same; you gain a lot but also lose some, but we will work to bridge any gap in the upcoming Hugo versions.
This is the default configuration:
{{< code-toggle config="markup.goldmark" />}}
For details on the extensions, refer to [this section](https://github.com/yuin/goldmark/#built-in-extensions) of the Goldmark documentation
Some settings explained:
unsafe
: By default, Goldmark does not render raw HTMLs and potentially dangerous links. If you have lots of inline HTML and/or JavaScript, you may need to turn this on.
typographer
: This extension substitutes punctuations with typographic entities like [smartypants](https://daringfireball.net/projects/smartypants/).
attribute
: Enable custom attribute support for titles and blocks by adding attribute lists inside single curly brackets (`{.myclass class="class1 class2" }`) and placing it _after the Markdown element it decorates_, on the same line for titles and on a new line directly below for blocks.
{{< new-in "0.81.0" >}} In Hugo 0.81.0 we added support for adding attributes (e.g. CSS classes) to Markdown blocks, e.g. tables, lists, paragraphs etc.
A blockquote with a CSS class:
```md
> foo
> bar
{.myclass}
```
There are some current limitations: For tables you can currently only apply it to the full table, and for lists the `ul`/`ol`-nodes only, e.g.:
```md
* Fruit
* Apple
* Orange
* Banana
{.fruits}
* Dairy
* Milk
* Cheese
{.dairies}
{.list}
```
Note that attributes in [code fences](/content-management/syntax-highlighting/#highlighting-in-code-fences) must come after the opening tag, with any other highlighting processing instruction, e.g.:
````
```go {.myclass linenos=table,hl_lines=[8,"15-17"],linenostart=199}
// ... code
```
````
autoHeadingIDType ("github") {{< new-in "0.62.2" >}}
: The strategy used for creating auto IDs (anchor names). Available types are `github`, `github-ascii` and `blackfriday`. `github` produces GitHub-compatible IDs, `github-ascii` will drop any non-Ascii characters after accent normalization, and `blackfriday` will make the IDs work as with [Blackfriday](#blackfriday), the default Markdown engine before Hugo 0.60. Note that if Goldmark is your default Markdown engine, this is also the strategy used in the [anchorize](/functions/anchorize/) template func.
### Blackfriday
[Blackfriday](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday) was Hugo's default Markdown rendering engine, now replaced with Goldmark. But you can still use it: Just set `defaultMarkdownHandler` to `blackfriday` in your top level `markup` config.
This is the default config:
{{< code-toggle config="markup.blackFriday" />}}
### Highlight
This is the default `highlight` configuration. Note that some of these settings can be set per code block, see [Syntax Highlighting](/content-management/syntax-highlighting/).
{{< code-toggle config="markup.highlight" />}}
For `style`, see these galleries:
* [Short snippets](https://xyproto.github.io/splash/docs/all.html)
* [Long snippets](https://xyproto.github.io/splash/docs/longer/all.html)
For CSS, see [Generate Syntax Highlighter CSS](/content-management/syntax-highlighting/#generate-syntax-highlighter-css).
### Table Of Contents
{{< code-toggle config="markup.tableOfContents" />}}
These settings only works for the Goldmark renderer:
startLevel
: The heading level, values starting at 1 (`h1`), to start render the table of contents.
endLevel
: The heading level, inclusive, to stop render the table of contents.
ordered
: Whether or not to generate an ordered list instead of an unordered list.
