Allows you to compose content in Markdown on a per-item basis. The markdown version is stored separately, so you can deactivate this plugin and your posts won't spew out Markdown.

== Description ==

The improved version allows you to insert a `<!--markdown-->` comment from whichever mobile app or 3rd party blogging application you use to designate a post as formatted for Markdown.

This plugin allows you to compose content in Markdown on a per-item basis. The markdown version is stored separately (in the `post_content_formatted` column), so you can deactivate this plugin and your posts won't spew out Markdown, because HTML is stored in the `post_content`, 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.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the `markdown-on-save-improved` folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory

2. Activate the "Markdown On Save Improved" plugin in your WordPress administration interface

3. Create a new post with Markdown, and check the "This post is formatted with Markdown" box, or put a `<!--markdown-->` HTML comment somewhere in the body of your post.

4. Done! Now that post can be edited using Markdown, but will save as processed HTML on the backend.

== Screenshots ==

1. The meta box where you designate a post as containing Markdown. This is the only UI for the plugin!

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I use Markdown syntax? =

Please refer to this resource: [http://michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/extra/](PHP Markdown Extra).

= How do I enable Markdown mode from a mobile app or 3rd party client such as Mars Edit? =

Simply put a `<!--markdown-->` HTML comment anywhere in your post body. If you delete it, it's the equivalent of unchecking the Markdown box.

= What happens if I uncheck the Markdown box? =

Your post will no longer be interpreted as Markdown, and you may have to alter the post to remove Markdown formatting.

= What happens if I decide I don't want this plugin anymore? =

Just deactivate it. The Markdown version is stored separately, so without the plugin, you'll just revert to editing the HTML version.
