Markdown for WordPress and bbPress

Instalim

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:

   (site home)/wp-content/plugins/
   

2. 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.

3. 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.
