Mark Jaquith

<p>This plugin allows you to compose content in Markdown on a per-item basis. The markdown version is stored separately (in the <code>post_content_filtered</code> column), so you can deactivate this plugin and your posts won’t spew out Markdown, because HTML is stored in the <code>post_content</code>, just like normal. This is also much faster than doing on-the-fly Markdown conversion on every page load. It’s only done once! When you re-edit the post, the markdown version is swapped into the editor for you to edit. If something external updates the post content, you’ll lose the Markdown version.</p>
<p>Note: this plugin assumes you’re using the Classic editor.</p>


Markdown on Save

Allows you to compose content in Markdown on a per-item basis. The markdown version is stored separately, so you can deactivate this plugin any time.
