Bug 283303 – [Bugzilla] Use monospaced font

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WONTFIX
• Component: WebKit Website

[Enrique Ocaña]

It's not uncommon for comments in bug reports to include pieces of code or other text-based content. An example of this is this is the file format dump in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=254222. For this kind of content, it makes more sense to use monospaced font in comment text boxes, which was a feature available in the previous Bugzilla version.

I understand that this is a matter of taste, and there's as many tastes as people. In case the team in charge of Bugzilla decides it doesn't make sense, I'd still like to link a custom Stylus stile that overrides that setting for those of us who prefer monospace no matter what:

Possible duplicate of #283301.

I think that this should be solved by enabling Markdown.

[Enrique Ocaña]

```
Looks like it's not enabled by default and I couldn't see any option to enable it in the user preferences either. Is it something that an admin can enable?
```

Sorry for being unclear, I meant that we'd need to pick up the support from upstream first.

[Enrique Ocaña]

Ok. If you see (hopefully near-mid) future support of Markdown is the way to go, I think I can keep living with the Stylus hack in my local browser until then.

Should I close this bug report?

In that case, please r- the Pull Request, because it's currently r+'d and I don't know what to do with it, as there are conflicting opinions.

[Enrique Ocaña]

Closing this bug as wontfix (with this "always force monospace" approach, at least).

Thanks for the clarifications.
