Consider this message: [Concrete 9.0 Release Candidate 2 Now Available! - #10 by mlocati](https://forums.concretecms.org/t/concrete-9-0-release-candidate-2-now-available/655/10)

In that message I wrote some code. Usually code is rendered with a monospace font.  
BTW we have a CSS rule like this:

```css
#main-outlet * {
    font-size: 16px !important;
    font-family: "Noto Sans" !important;
    text-transform: none !important;
}

```

this rule forces the code to use the same font as the “normal” text.

Thanks for reporting. There’s a ticket for it already, but I’m not sure when it will be fixed. We also need to get the back ticks to stop being treated as combining diacritics…

If you’re feeling ambitious, the repository is here: [https://github.com/concrete5/discourse\_concretecms\_theme](https://github.com/concrete5/discourse_concretecms_theme) 🙂
