Markdown tutorial

[deleted]

Markdown is not for everyone and I'm sure flarum will include editor. All tags are hard to remember and unless you in the coding industry pretty useless.

Can I use markdown on none flarum apps on my iPhone? Does anyone know any apps that use it? WhatsApp?

Very good if you can remember them all and bother typing it.

Not so much stealing the idea from Reddit, but they have a formatting guide on their New Post and New Comment dialogues. I think that's something that could be added as an extension, but ideally being markdown is a core functionality, I think some minor documentation would be nice.

Thank god I'm finally getting away from that pseudo-HTML BBCode garbage though.

Berlyn but there won't be any need for formatting guide once visual editor is integrated.
it's only strange that it takes so long to implement it???
but final version should be available with it, i guess.

Berlyn

ameo Oh I am actually surprised to hear that a visual editor will be implemented. I wasn't aware of this, which basically makes the need for documentation redundant. Haha.

which markdown library flarum use ?

Maestro_OP

For god sake, add some buttons to editor already.

Maestro_OP Nice post history whining about buttons every other month. How about you do it yourself? Too incompetent for it? Easy: pay someone to do it. Oh, you don't want to do that either? Well I guess you're just a waste of space then.

@JoshyPHP you shouldn't have to degrade yourself on something like this, your work here is much appreciated and is a work of wonders if someone can't simply search the forums for editor alternatives then that's on them. ?

JoshyPHP

Yeah, but I read half a dozen of such posts per day and they give me ulcers after a while if I don't do something about it. ?
