Knowledgebase / Markdown

[just_me]

For technical documentation within the knowledgebase it would be brilliant, if i could use markdown. I already have a lot of markdown formatted content, which i would like to paste into the kb. Any idea how to get this done?

Thank you

Hi,

It's not supported at the moment. But I think you can add a custom textarea field and then, in the backend, convert markdown to HTML and write to the body. The php-markdown lib is available in Espo.

Description text support markdown. Perhaps you can create that custom field and use that instead of the default WYSIWYG

I gave it a try with a textbox but i am lost where to define, that it should use markdown. I can show raw text or preview, but that's all in my 9.0.2. Any idea how to achieve that?

TIA.

(been quite a while on sick leave and couldn't follow up. Was hoping, it would be some sort of standard in V9 though)

Update: Consider this done, i was misleaded because of the non-english GUI, i found out how to do it and it works. Thanks for the push in the right direction.
