+`.RenderString` is a method on `Page` that renders some markup to HTML using the content renderer defined for that page (if not set in the options).
+
+*Note* that this method does not parse and render shortcodes.
+
+The method takes an optional map argument with these options:
+
+display ("inline")
+: `inline` or `block`. If `inline` (default), surrounding ยด<p></p>` on short snippets will be trimmed.
+
+markup (defaults to the Page's markup)
+: See identifiers in [List of content formats](/content-management/formats/#list-of-content-formats).
+
+Some examples:
+
+```go-html-template
+{{ $optBlock := dict "display" "block" }}
+{{ $optOrg := dict "markup" "org" }}
+{{ "**Bold Markdown**" | $p.RenderString }}
+{{ "**Bold Block Markdown**" | $p.RenderString $optBlock }}
+{{ "/italic org mode/" | $p.RenderString $optOrg }}
+```
+
+
+**Note** that this method is more powerful than the similar [markdownify](/functions/markdownify/) function as it also supports [Render Hooks](/getting-started/configuration-markup/#markdown-render-hooks) and it has options to render other markup formats.
