The markdown version is stored separately (in the `post_content_filtered` 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. Note: this plugin assumes you’re using the Classic editor. ## Screenshots * [[ * The Markdown logo you click to designate a post as containing Markdown. This is the only UI for the plugin! ## Installation 1. Upload the `markdown-on-save` folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the “Markdown On Save” plugin in your WordPress administration interface 3. Create a new post with Markdown, and click the Markdown logo in the publish metabox( see screenshot). 4. Done! Now that post can be edited using Markdown, but will save as processed HTML on the backend. ## FAQ ### How do I use Markdown syntax? Please refer to this resource: [http://michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/extra/]( PHP Markdown Extra). ### What happens if I click the Markdown logo again? Your post will no longer be interpreted as Markdown, you will be returned to the normal editing experience. ### 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. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9e7c7903630729c984f36a09a098423940a9fb033b903c1c106f8f48896dc3ff? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Really good idea](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/really-good-idea-4/)󠁿 [lovingboth](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lovingboth/) април 24, 2025 You have the advantage of using Markdown rather than the horrible Gutenberg block system while also being able to let someone else edit in the Classic Editor.
