@UaMV Saw your issues! I've been working on it since yesterday. Going to release a new version soon. Thank you man!

xdass You need to access SSH, If you don't just do it on your local computer.

Windows

You need to have Composer installed. I assue you already have that since you installed flarum.
open up your CMD point it to your flarum installation root and write

composer require xengine/flarum-ext-markdown-editor

OSX

It's the same as windows use Terminal instead of CMD ?

Finally

Go to your vendor directory and copy folder named XEngine to your FTP's vendor directory. I think you are good to go man!

@XEngine

First, thanks for your great work.

But can you consider changing the library behind your extension ? SimpleMDE is very heavy and not suitable for a forum because this markdown editor is bundled and depends on CodeMirror library, a browser text editor, like notepad++ in terms of functionality.

We just need few buttons that insert markdown tags in a textaera, not really a full text editor.

Thanks ?

    I use toopay/bootstrap-markdown for my chat application but it requires a bootstrap front-end and flarum doesn't use bootstrap. Maybe someone else know another small library or do it your self ?, something very simple with some buttons and JS to add markdown in a textarea.

    5 days later

    I released a new version! Which is using Pagedown, almost as the same as StackOverflow's editor. If you want to keep going with the SimpleMDE use the latest 0.5 version.

      XEngine Nice! I saw your notes on Github. I'm updating now. Thanks for your work on this!

      XEngine Seems great, it does break the forum though if you do not clear your cache after installing this plugin.

      arjoni If you are using older version like 0.5 or lower type

      the easiest way to update is remove the old one and install the new one.

      composer remove xengine/flarum-ext-markdown-editor
      composer require xengine/flarum-ext-markdown-editor

        XEngine Thanks! It looks like this extension is blocking the image and file upload extension. Can you please look into it? See this for pictures:

        https://discuss.flarum.org/d/1836-flagrow-image-uploader-for-flarum-forum-messages

          arjoni It should be fixed now! can you try to run

          composer update

          For me, trying just a few moments ago, it installs and I cleared the cache.

          When I go to enter a reply, the editor disappears completely and won't return until I load another discussion or refresh the page. It does it every time I click in to the editor box to start a reply.

          I have tried disabling/re-nabling and all combinations thereof while also clearing the cache.

            f0r3v3r I had that happening for me as well today. Not sure if it has persisted.

              DAMNimST0NED Chrome. I didn't peak in the console at the time and now on my phone. Not sure when I'll get to checking it … wisdom teeth out tomorrow morning. ?
