Reproduction

9.4.2-test.zip

Steps to reproduce

The easier way: Searching for slugify in the official documentation, and look for this result:

The (entirely unnecessarily) more complex way: Using the supplied ZIP, search for test and see how the two results differ. index.md is unaffected while test.md is broken (in the search results).

Thanks for reporting. We'll look into it. Regarding reproductions, our bug reporting guide explains why we need them:

Why we need this: if an issue contains no minimal reproduction or just a link to a repository with thousands of files, the maintainers would need to invest a lot of time into trying to recreate the right conditions to even inspect the bug, let alone fix it.

Minimal reproductions make our life easier, allowing us to fix bugs quicker. Thank you for providing one.

So, in fact, all indentation is currently lost for code blocks in search – not all in admonitions. We'll look into it.

Bisection leads to the insight that the error was introduced between 9.0.2 and 9.0.3, specifically in 81e7b8c.

Fixed in 8299f1d. The whitespace collapsing logic was triggering the problem.

Released as part of 9.4.3.
