Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

QH Markdown Exporter lets you export any combination of post types and statuses as Markdown files — perfectly formatted for Obsidian and other Markdown-based note-taking apps.

Key features:

  • YAML frontmatter — title, source URL, author, published date, description, tags, and full hierarchical categories
  • Extended metadata (optional, on by default) — adds word_count, outline (ordered H2–H4 heading list), and internal_links (structured list of links to other exported posts) to each file’s frontmatter — ideal for AI/SEO tooling
  • Clean content — strips sidebars, widgets, navigation, related-posts blocks, social-share plugins, and other injected noise
  • GFM tables — converts HTML tables to GitHub-Flavored Markdown pipe tables
  • Bulk export — export your entire site at once or filter by post type, status, and date range
  • Large-site support — chunked AJAX export with live progress bar handles sites with thousands of posts
  • Sitemap export — optional sitemap.json bundled in the ZIP: hierarchical pages tree, posts grouped by category, and custom post types — ready for AI/LLM ingestion
  • No dependencies — pure PHP with no external libraries required

Output format:
