## Sanitizing logic

With the default Markdown renderer, Goldmark, the sanitizing logic is controlled by your site configuration:





  
      
markup:
  goldmark:
    parser:
      autoHeadingIDType: github

      
      
[markup]
  [markup.goldmark]
    [markup.goldmark.parser]
      autoHeadingIDType = 'github'

      
      
{
   "markup": {
      "goldmark": {
         "parser": {
            "autoHeadingIDType": "github"
         }
      }
   }
}

      



This controls the behavior of the `anchorize` function and the generation of heading IDs when rendering Markdown to HTML.

Set `autoHeadingIDType` to one of:

github
: Compatible with GitHub. This is the default.

github-ascii
: Similar to the `github` setting, but removes non-ASCII characters.

blackfriday
: Provided for backwards compatibility with Hugo v0.59.1 and earlier. This option will be removed in a future release.
