Markdown filter Drupal module ================================================================================ Provides Markdown filter integration for Drupal input formats. The Markdown syntax is designed to co-exist with HTML, so you can set up input formats with both HTML and Markdown support. It is also meant to be as human-readable as possible when left as "source". This module is a continuation of the Markdown with Smartypants module (at http://drupal.org/project/marksmarty), and only includes Markdown support to simplify configuration. It is now suggested that you use Tipogrify module (see http://drupal.org/project/typogrify) if you are interested in Smartypants support. Note that if you use the GeSHI filter for code syntax highlighting, arrange this filter after that one.

Install the Libraries API module, available at http://drupal.org/project/libraries 1. Move the entire "markdown" directory into your Drupal installation's sites/all/modules folder (or your site specific directory). 2. If there isn't one already, create a "libraries" folder at sites/all. Download the Markdown Extra library from http://michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/extra/ and extract it to a folder named "markdown" inside sites/all/libraries 3. Enable the module on Administer >> Site building >> Modules 4. Set up a new input format or add Markdown support to an existing format at Administer >> Site configuration >> Input formats 5. For best security, ensure that the HTML filter is after the Markdown filter on the "Reorder" page of the input format and that only markup you would like to allow in via HTML and/or Markdown is configured to be allowed via the HTML filter.
