Ultimate Markdown – Markdown Editor, Importer, & Exporter

Using Markdown with Gutenberg is quite difficult. Markdown block from Jetpack is very limited, plugins proposing to edit in Markdown in a separate editor miss blocks philosophy.
As I prefer to work with my favorite Markdown Editor, Ultimate Markdown is a nice solution : it can import Markdown text in the post and convert the different elements in the relative block. A text paragraph will be a block text, a list a block list and so on. So the result is a real Gutenberg content.

The downside : you cannot convert back to Markdown the post content but it’s not a big deal for me.

Interesting management of Markdown


UPDATE: Turns out it was the use of three dashes for an <hr> tag that caused the problem. Apparently that means something else in this markdown plugin. Changing it to "***" worked perfectly. Five stars now!

I really wanted to like this plugin. Unfortunately, it has a fatal flaw. When I import a markdown file, it randomly skips chunks of the file. Can't use it that way. If and when this gets fixed, I'll update the review.


Serious bug: skips large sections of input

Generate articles from a Markdown file, bulk import and export Markdown documents, create Markdown documents from an editor, and more.
