Extension talk:MarkdownExtraParser

At first, it wasn't working because httpd reported:

 [:error] [pid 1807] [client] PHP Fatal error:  Class 'MarkdownExtra_Parser' not found in /var/www/html/wiki/extensions/MarkdownExtraParser/MarkdownExtraParser.php on line 120

And I realized there was an underscore: class MarkdownExtraOverride extends MarkdownExtra_Parser {

so I took it out, but now I get a different error:

[:error] [pid 2524] [client ] PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined method MarkdownExtraOverride::transform() in /var/www/html/wiki/extensions/MarkdownExtraParser/markdown.php on line 55

So I'm not sure if it's using some deprecated functions or something. I know PHP markdown is nearly a 13 year old extension, so wasn't sure if it should still work. I'm using 5.6.

what a shame :(

I just installed this and got a stream of deprecation warnings.

It's difficult to believe that you can't do markdown in mediawiki. Or is everyone else using a different extension? (Or a different wiki???)

There seems to be a conflict with Extension:SyntaxHighlight GeSHi - See screen for details:

Theat's really sad beacause it breaks the source-Tag. And I don't want to use Extension:MarkdownExtraGeshiSyntax beacuse it requires the markdown part to be wrapped...

Maybe there's an easy solution?

There's a Github Issue: https://github.com/Rican7/MediaWiki-MarkdownExtraParser/issues/3

Great plugin, especially it really works together with MediawikiSyntax;))

Can I add a paragraph with Conflicts like # for numbered lists (MW) and headings (MD) and usage of Help:Magic words?

I just tried it Extension:MarkdownExtraParser#Conflicts.

Cool, thank you for doing this!

It looks as though the files required to run this have been moved from the link as given to http://michelf.ca/projects/php-markdown/classic/. Took me a while to work that out because I have no idea what I'm doing but when I used the files available in the /classic directory I stopped getting errors that wouldn't let me get to the wiki. I could have done something else wrong, tho, so just leaving a note here. Cheers.

Thank you for letting us know. I just updated the documentation to point to the classic version of markdown which seems to be the only working one in combination with this extension.
