About this plugin
Markdown Editor replaces the default WordPress editor with a Markdown editor for your posts and pages. This plugin uses the Jetpack Markdown module for converting Markdown into HTML and plays nicely with Jetpack if both plugins are installed.
There are 4 editor layouts to choose from when writing posts: default, preview, full-screen and split screen. Changes are updated automatically allowing you to preview your content as you write.
By default Markdown Editor is only enabled on Posts, but you can enable it on pages and custom post types by adding post type support. php file:
add_post_type_support( 'page', 'wpcom-markdown' );
php file:
add_post_type_support( 'product', 'wpcom-markdown' );
Syntax Highlighting
By default, Markdown Editor enables syntax highlighting for code blocks. php file:
add_filter( 'markdown_editor_highlight', '__return_false' );
The click to copy button can be removed with the following line:
add_filter( 'markdown_editor_clipboard', '__return_false' );
