<p>Comment forms allow some HTML, this plugin extends that to let users type in <a href="http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/" rel="nofollow ugc">Markdown</a> and have it automatically converted to HTML.  It also extends Markdown with a couple features made popular <a href="https://github.com/github/github-flavored-markdown" rel="nofollow ugc">by GitHub</a>.  Conversion from Markdown to HTML is completely automated and doesn’t require anything on the commenter’s part.</p>
<p>The feature additions from GitHub are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Single linebreaks are treated as new paragraphs</li>
<li>Code “fencing” with three backticks (“`)</li>
</ul>
<p>Two notable features from GitHub’s Markdown implementation are missing:</p>
<ul>
<li>To do lists: Doing these well would require some front end interaction, which I decided is outside the scope of this plugin at least for now</li>
<li>Repository autolinking (e.g. comments, issues, etc): These seemed a little <em>too</em> GitHub-specific.</li>
</ul>
<p>GitHub-Flavored Markdown Comments is developed, unsurprisingly, <a href="https://github.com/evansolomon/wp-github-flavored-markdown-comments" rel="nofollow ugc">on GitHub</a>.</p>

<p>WP Github provides three sidebar widgets which can be configured to display public profile, repositories, commits, issues and gists from github in the sidebar. You can have as many widgets as you want configured to display different repositories.</p>
<p>Currently the plugin can list:</p>
<ul>
<li>Profile</li>
<li>Repositories</li>
<li>Commits</li>
<li>Issues</li>
<li>Gists</li>
<li>Pull request</li>
<li>Single Issue</li>
<li>Embed File content (with highlighter)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Using CSS</h3>
<p>The plugin uses a basic unordered lists to enumerate. In the future will be implemented a simple template system to increase the customization.</p>
<p>You can apply a customized style to the plugin simply uploading a file called <code>custom.css</code> in the plugin folder. It will allow you to upgrade the plugin without loss your custom style.</p>
<h3>Caching</h3>
<p>The plugin caches all the data retrieved from Github every 10 minutes to avoid exceed the limit of api calls.</p>
<p>Since version 1.1 you can clear the cache from the plugin settings page located in the WordPress settings menu.</p>
<p>Since version 1.2.6 you can add your github credentials</p>
