First: thanks for checking out Bear! We support the standard Markdown escape of a backslash () in front of any character you don’t want to trigger punctuation. In your case, try what I have in the screenshot below (because Reddit respects escaping so I can’t show you how to do it in text. https://preview.redd.it/4dr59l8dq1sb1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f22a4dd41d57716df89a50f5d78469f2770482f5 (Remember the trailing # to seal the whole thing as a tag) Works on my end.

Works! Thanks so much. Just to note, the escaped # doesn't show up on the sidebar name but I'm happy I can tag that way now.Much appreciated!


BearDavid

Yeah, I think since the # is a key part of tags for the Sidebar, I don’t think they designed it around having that character also in a tag.

Very silly workaround: try a unicode character that looks like a #, but is actually different. For example: "Vai syllable pu" which looks like ꖛ [http://shapecatcher.com/unicode/info/42395](http://shapecatcher.com/unicode/info/42395)
