CHANGELOG · v53.0.2...v53.0.3 · By @felixfeng33

@platejs/autoformat

Breaking Changes

• Deprecate @platejs/autoformat. Markdown shortcuts and text substitutions are now authored as inputRules on each feature plugin, and AutoformatPlugin remains only as an inert compatibility export. (#4941)

  Migration:

  1. Remove AutoformatPlugin from your plugins and replace @platejs/autoformat after migrating rules.
  2. Replace each old AutoformatRule with the matching rule factory on the plugin that owns the feature. See the table below.
  3. Replace symbol substitutions (arrows, fractions, smart quotes, legal, math operators) with createTextSubstitutionInputRule registered on a local createSlatePlugin.
  4. Replace rules[].query with enabled on the rule factory call. Replace the global code-block guard with a per-plugin enabled check.
  5. Drop enableUndoOnDelete — undo-on-delete is the built-in behavior.
  6. Replace custom AutoformatRule definitions with createRuleFactory from platejs.

  // Before
  import { AutoformatPlugin } from "@platejs/autoformat";
   
  const editor = createPlateEditor({
    plugins: [
      AutoformatPlugin.configure({
        options: {
          enableUndoOnDelete: true,
          rules: [
            { match: "# ", mode: "block", type: KEYS.h1 },
            { match: "**", mode: "mark", type: KEYS.bold },
            {
              match: "* ",
              mode: "block",
              type: "list",
              format: (editor) =>
                toggleList(editor, { listStyleType: KEYS.ul }),
            },
          ],
        },
      }),
    ],
  });
   
  // After
  import { BoldRules } from "@platejs/basic-nodes";
  import { BoldPlugin } from "@platejs/basic-nodes/react";
  import { HeadingRules } from "@platejs/basic-nodes";
  import { H1Plugin } from "@platejs/basic-nodes/react";
  import { BulletedListRules } from "@platejs/list";
  import { ListPlugin } from "@platejs/list/react";
   
  const editor = createPlateEditor({
    plugins: [
      H1Plugin.configure({ inputRules: [HeadingRules.markdown()] }),
      BoldPlugin.configure({
        inputRules: [BoldRules.markdown({ variant: "*" })],
      }),
      ListPlugin.configure({
        inputRules: [BulletedListRules.markdown({ variant: "-" })],
      }),
    ],

  Rule Map

  Basic blocks — @platejs/basic-nodes

  Old rule	New rule
  { match: '# '..'###### ', mode: 'block', type: KEYS.h1..h6 }	HxPlugin.configure({ inputRules: [HeadingRules.markdown()] }) — register on each H1Plugin..H6Plugin
  { match: '> ', mode: 'block', type: KEYS.blockquote }	BlockquotePlugin.configure({ inputRules: [BlockquoteRules.markdown()] })
  { match: ['---', '—-', '___ '], mode: 'block', type: KEYS.hr }	HorizontalRulePlugin.configure({ inputRules: [HorizontalRuleRules.markdown({ variant: '-' }), HorizontalRuleRules.markdown({ variant: '_' })] })

  Basic marks — @platejs/basic-nodes

  Old rule	New rule	Owning plugin
  { match: '**', mode: 'mark', type: KEYS.bold }	BoldRules.markdown({ variant: '*' })	BoldPlugin
  { match: '__', mode: 'mark', type: KEYS.underline }	UnderlineRules.markdown()	UnderlinePlugin
  { match: '*', mode: 'mark', type: KEYS.italic }	ItalicRules.markdown({ variant: '*' })	ItalicPlugin
  { match: '_', mode: 'mark', type: KEYS.italic }	ItalicRules.markdown({ variant: '_' })	ItalicPlugin

  { match: '***', mode: 'mark', type: [bold, italic] }	MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: 'boldItalic' })	BoldPlugin
  { match: '__*', mode: 'mark', type: [underline, italic] }	MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: 'italicUnderline' })	BoldPlugin
  { match: '__**', mode: 'mark', type: [underline, bold] }	MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: 'boldUnderline' })	BoldPlugin
  { match: '___***', mode: 'mark', type: [underline, bold, italic] }	MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: 'boldItalicUnderline' })	BoldPlugin

  Register each family on its owning plugin:

  BoldPlugin.configure({
    inputRules: [
      BoldRules.markdown({ variant: "*" }),
      BoldRules.markdown({ variant: "_" }),
      MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: "boldItalic" }),
      MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: "boldUnderline" }),
      MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: "boldItalicUnderline" }),
      MarkComboRules.markdown({ variant: "italicUnderline" }),
    ],
  });Copy

  Code block — @platejs/code-block

  Old rule	New rule
  { match: '```', mode: 'block', type: KEYS.codeBlock, format: insertEmptyCodeBlock }	CodeBlockPlugin.configure({ inputRules: [CodeBlockRules.markdown({ on: 'match' })] })

  Lists — @platejs/list and @platejs/list-classic

  Old rule	New rule
  { match: ['- ', '* '], mode: 'block', format: toggleList(..., { listStyleType: KEYS.ul }) }	BulletedListRules.markdown({ variant: '-' }), BulletedListRules.markdown({ variant: '*' })
  { match: /^\d+\.$ |^\d+\)$ /, matchByRegex: true, format: toggleList(..., { listStyleType: KEYS.ol }) }	OrderedListRules.markdown({ variant: '.' }), OrderedListRules.markdown({ variant: ')' })
  { match: '[] ', mode: 'block', format: toggleList(..., { listStyleType: KEYS.listTodo }) }	TaskListRules.markdown({ checked: false })
  { match: '[x] ', mode: 'block', format: toggleList + setNodes({ checked: true }) }	TaskListRules.markdown({ checked: true })

  ListPlugin.configure({
    inputRules: [
      BulletedListRules.markdown({ variant: "-" }),
      BulletedListRules.markdown({ variant: "*" }),
      OrderedListRules.markdown({ variant: "." }),
      OrderedListRules.markdown({ variant: ")" }),
      TaskListRules.markdown({ checked: false }),
      TaskListRules.markdown({ checked: true }),
    ],
  });Copy

  Replace @platejs/list with @platejs/list-classic imports when using the classic list model. The factory names are identical.

  Math — @platejs/math

  Old rule	New rule
  Inline equation $…$	InlineEquationPlugin.configure({ inputRules: [MathRules.markdown({ variant: '$' })] })
  Block equation $$…$$	EquationPlugin.configure({ inputRules: [MathRules.markdown({ on: 'break', variant: '$$' })] })

  Link — @platejs/link

  Old behavior	New rule
  [text](url) markdown	LinkRules.markdown()
  Autolink on paste	LinkRules.autolink({ variant: 'paste' })
  Autolink on space	LinkRules.autolink({ variant: 'space' })
  Autolink on Enter	LinkRules.autolink({ variant: 'break' })

  LinkPlugin.configure({
    inputRules: [
      LinkRules.markdown(),
      LinkRules.autolink({ variant: "paste" }),
      LinkRules.autolink({ variant: "space" }),
      LinkRules.autolink({ variant: "break" }),
    ],
  });Copy

  Text substitutions (arrows, fractions, legal, math operators, smart quotes)

  Move these to a local createSlatePlugin with createTextSubstitutionInputRule:

  import {
    createSlatePlugin,
    createTextSubstitutionInputRule,
    KEYS,
  } from "platejs";
   
  const isTextSubstitutionBlocked = (editor) =>
    editor.api.some({ match: { type: [editor.getType(KEYS.codeBlock)] } });
   
  const ShortcutsPlugin = createSlatePlugin({
    key: "shortcuts",
    inputRules: [
      createTextSubstitutionInputRule({
        enabled: ({ editor }) => !isTextSubstitutionBlocked(editor),
        patterns: [
          { format: "→", match: "->" },
          { format: "⇒", match: "=>" },
          { format: "½", match: "1/2" },
          { format: "™", match: ["(tm)", "(TM)"] },
          { format: ["“", "”"], match: '"' },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  });Copy

  Each pattern set is just data — autoformatArrow, autoformatLegal, autoformatMath, autoformatPunctuation, autoformatSmartQuotes, and autoformatLegalHtml from the old package map 1:1 onto patterns arrays. AutoformatKit in the Plate registry is pre-built with all of them.

  Custom rules

  Old AutoformatRule objects have no direct replacement. Build a rule family with createRuleFactory:

  import { createRuleFactory } from "platejs";
   
  const MyRules = {
    markdown: createRuleFactory({
      type: "blockMatch",
      match: "!! ",
      format: "my-block",
    }),
  };
   
  MyPlugin.configure({ inputRules: [MyRules.markdown()] });Copy

  Option removals

  • enableUndoOnDelete — removed. Backspace on a rule-inserted node restores the source text by default.
  • rules[].query — replaced by enabled on the rule factory call.
  • rules[].preFormat / rules[].format — replaced by rule-family format and resolve callbacks inside createRuleFactory.
  • rules[].trigger — rule families set their own trigger. Override it with the trigger option on a custom createRuleFactory call.

  See the Autoformat doc for the kit path and the Plugin Input Rules guide for the full runtime.

@platejs/basic-nodes

Breaking Changes

• Store blockquotes as container blocks with block children. Lift every selected nested quoted block one level on Shift+Tab. Reset headings to paragraphs on Backspace at block start before any merge. (#4941)

  Migration:

  1. Update persisted values, fixtures, and tests to use block children instead of direct text children.
  2. Expect editor.tf.blockquote.toggle() to wrap or unwrap blocks instead of retagging one text block in place.
  3. Empty later quoted paragraphs delete in place on Backspace instead of jumping out of the quote.
  4. Backspace at the start of a heading now resets the heading to a paragraph before any merge.
  5. Legacy flat blockquote values still normalize on load, but persisted snapshots and fixtures should move to the new shape.

  // Before
  { type: 'blockquote', children: [{ text: 'Quote' }] }
   
  // After
  {
    type: 'blockquote',
    children: [{ type: 'p', children: [{ text: 'Quote' }] }],
  }Copy

@platejs/code-block

Breaking Changes

• Keep Backspace at the start of a non-empty first code line inside the code block. Merge an empty inner code line into the previous code line instead of unwrapping the block. (#4941)

@platejs/markdown

Breaking Changes

• Round-trip blockquotes as nested block content instead of flat newline-packed text. Serialize image titles from node.title instead of copying the caption into the markdown title slot. Preserve MDX media attribute expressions during markdown serialization instead of stringifying them into JSON text. Serialize plain URL links back to bare URL markdown instead of bracket-link form. Round-trip footnote references and definitions as dedicated footnote nodes instead of collapsing them to plain-text fallback. (#4941)

  Migration:

  1. Update snapshots and direct value assertions to expect blockquote.children to contain block nodes such as paragraphs and lists.
  2. If you generate initial editor values from markdown, hydrate blockquotes with paragraph children instead of flat text.
  3. If you want markdown output like ![alt](url "title"), set node.title. Images without a title now serialize as ![alt](url).
  4. If you serialize MDX media nodes with expression attributes like width={640}, expect those expressions to stay as expressions instead of turning into quoted JSON.
  5. Plain URL links such as https://platejs.org now serialize as bare URLs instead of [https://platejs.org](https://platejs.org).
  6. If you enable footnote-aware markdown input, install @platejs/footnote and include BaseFootnoteReferencePlugin and BaseFootnoteDefinitionPlugin so footnote nodes have real editor semantics instead of falling back to unknown node types.

  // Before
  { type: 'blockquote', children: [{ text: 'Quote\\nNext line' }] }
   
  // After
  {
    type: 'blockquote',
    children: [
      { type: 'p', children: [{ text: 'Quote' }] },
      { type: 'p', children: [{ text: 'Next line' }] },
    ],
  }Copy

Bug Fixes

• Write canonical date nodes as <date value="..."/> and round-trip normalized media embed metadata (#4941)

• Preserve unknown MDX and raw HTML block source more faithfully during markdown deserialization fallback (#4941)

@platejs/table

Breaking Changes

• Escalate the second selectAll from the current table to the whole document. (#4941)

@platejs/core

Features

• Add lift as a break and delete rule action for blocks that should leave one ancestor level instead of resetting or exiting. Reset the trailing block to a paragraph when splitReset handles selected heading text. (#4941)

Bug Fixes

• Add createRuleFactory for building input rule families with overridable defaults and required options (#4941)

• Add useNavigationHighlight(path) for React node components that need the current navigation-feedback target without reading plugin options directly (#4941)

@platejs/footnote

Features

• Add FootnoteReferencePlugin, FootnoteDefinitionPlugin, and FootnoteInputPlugin for real footnote nodes and inline [^ combobox insertion in Plate editors. (#4941)

@platejs/date

Bug Fixes

• Store date nodes as canonical YYYY-MM-DD values and preserve unparseable legacy text as fallback data (#4941)

@platejs/link

Bug Fixes

• Keep pasted URLs literal inside markdown link source entry by default (#4941)

@platejs/list

Bug Fixes

• Allow list markdown rule families to override shared runtime rule fields while keeping semantic variant and checked options (#4941)

@platejs/list-classic

Bug Fixes

• Allow classic list markdown rule families to override shared runtime rule fields while keeping semantic variant and checked options (#4941)

@platejs/media

Bug Fixes

• Support allowlisted Twitter/X embed snippet extraction in media embed URL transforms (#4941)

• Normalize supported media embeds into canonical provider metadata and preserve source URLs for embed editing (#4941)

@platejs/slate

Bug Fixes

• Updated slate, slate-dom. (081cbe9)

@platejs/toc

Bug Fixes

• Add active section state to useTocElementState so TOC elements can mark the current heading while the document scrolls (#4941)

• Fix TOC activation to navigate without entering block-selection mode (#4941)

@platejs/utils

Bug Fixes

• Add KEYS.footnoteDefinition, KEYS.footnoteReference, and KEYS.footnoteInput (#4941)
