Parse a line of Markdown, without <p>

Question

Is there a way to parse a line of Markdown within Twig – without the surrounding <p> tags?

I see there is a StringHelper method called ParseMarkdownLine that does exactly what I'd like, but I haven't found a way to invoke it in my templates.

Answer 1

If you're here looking for a Craft 3 answer, the Wordsmith plugin offers the same ability to only parse inline and not include paragraph tags:

{{ entry.title|markdown(inlineOnly=true) }}

Answer 2

Have a look at the Parsedown plugin by P&T, it provides a line mode to not output any wrapping <p> tags.

{{ entry.title|parsedown('line') }}
