 ## Fetching Remote Markdown
 
-Astro does not include built-in support for remote Markdown outside of [content collections](/en/guides/content-collections/).
+Astro's internal Markdown processor is not available for processing remote Markdown.
+
+To fetch remote Markdown for use in [content collections](/en/guides/content-collections/), you can [build a custom loader](/en/guides/content-collections/#building-a-custom-loader) with access to a [`renderMarkdown()` function](/en/reference/content-loader-reference/#rendermarkdown).
 
 To fetch remote Markdown directly and render it to HTML, you will need to install and configure your own Markdown parser from NPM. This will not inherit from any of Astro's built-in Markdown settings that you have configured.
