Code field doesn't keep it's formatting

Since an update of the forum, the code field doesn’t keep it’s formatting. For example this page has some code that needs to be copied into a file: [GUIDE] Install Transmission 2.77
Under the text “Delete the json settings file and replace it with the text in the REPLACEMENT TEXT window” there should be two lines of code, but instead they are put in a single line. Same happens with the code under the text “REPLACEMENT TEXT (Right mouse click in the PuTTY window to paste)”. The code should be in a particular format, but that has been erased since the update.

Can this be fixed?

I’ve forwarded this to the Discourse development team to determine if the issue is on our end, or an issue with the back-end code powering the forum.

I am sorry, can you reply here with a minimal sample that exhibits the issue? Also if you want to avoid all the indenting you can you triple backticks

```text
this 
is 
some 
code
```

On the referred page ([GUIDE] Install Transmission 2.77) the highlighted section of code was originally well formatted.

After the first comma (after the value 50), the code would go to the next line. Same happened after the second comma, etc. Here’s a second example:

Copy and pasting this code into a text file doesn’t get the desired result, since it has lost it’s format.
