Title: Markdown for WordPress and bbPress Author: mitcho (Michael Yoshitaka Erlewine) Published: Mei 21, 2008 Last modified: Mei 21, 2008 --- Tafuta vijalizi This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/markdown-for-wordpress-and-bbpress.svg) # Markdown for WordPress and bbPress By [mitcho (Michael Yoshitaka Erlewine)](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mitchoyoshitaka/) [Pakua](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/markdown-for-wordpress-and-bbpress.1.0.zip) * [Details](https://sw.wordpress.org/plugins/markdown-for-wordpress-and-bbpress/#description) * [Reviews](https://sw.wordpress.org/plugins/markdown-for-wordpress-and-bbpress/#reviews) * [Installation](https://sw.wordpress.org/plugins/markdown-for-wordpress-and-bbpress/#installation) * [Development](https://sw.wordpress.org/plugins/markdown-for-wordpress-and-bbpress/#developers) [Saidia](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/markdown-for-wordpress-and-bbpress/) ## Maelezo [Markdown syntax](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax) allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format. Markdown for WordPress and bbPress (Markdown-WPBB) is based on the famed PHP Markdown Extra by [Michel Fortin](http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/), in turn based on the original Perl version by [John Gruber](http://www.daringfireball.net/). All I did was make the same package work with bbPress too. ^^ ## Installation #### WordPress PHP Markdown works with WordPress, version 1.2 or later. PHP Markdown is already bundled with WordPress. Still, you can find here the latest version that may be newer than the latest WordPress version. 1. To use Markdown-WPBB with WordPress, place the “markdown.php” file in the “plugins” folder. This folder is located inside “wp-content” at the root of your site: 2. ``` (site home)/wp-content/plugins/ ``` 3. Activate the plugin with the administrative interface of WordPress. In the “Plugins” section you will now find “Markdown for WordPress and bbPress.” To activate the plugin, click on the “Activate” button on the same line as Markdown. Your entries will now be formatted with Markdown. 4. To post Markdown content, you’ll first have to disable the “visual” editor in the User section of WordPress. You can configure Markdown-WPBB to not apply to the comments on your WordPress weblog. See the “FAQ” section below. #### bbPress 1. To use Markdown-WPBB with bbPress, place the “markdown.php” file in the “plugins” folder. This folder is located inside “wp-content” at the root of your site: 2. ``` (site home)/my-plugins/ ``` 3. If you don’t have a `/my-plugins/` directory in your bbPress installaltion, create it on the root level of your bbPress installation. 4. Activate the plugin with the administrative interface of bbPress. Find “Markdown for WordPress and bbPress” on the “Plugins” screen and hit “Activate.” ## Reviews Hakuna hakiki za programu-jalizi hii. ## Wachangiaji & Wasanidi “Markdown for WordPress and bbPress” is open source software.
