Provides basic and optionally extra markdown filter integration for Backdrop
input formats. Filter based on Parsedown markdown parser with
Markdown Extra support.
Important note about running Parsedown filter with other input filters
Parsedown filter may conflict with other input filters, depending on the order
in which filters are configured to apply. If using Parsedown filter produces
unexpected markup when configured with other filters, experimenting with the
the order of those filters will likely resolve the issue.
The "Limit allowed HTML tags" filter is a special case:
For best security, ensure that it is run after the Markdown Extra filter and
that only markup you would like to allow in via HTML and/or Markdown Extra is
configured to be allowed by it.
If you, on the other hand, want to make sure that all converted Markdown text
is preserved, run it after the Markdown Extra filter. Note that
blockquoting with Parsedown filter doesn't work when run after "Limit allowed
HTML tags". It converts the ">".
