markdown to vaultwiki possible?

[madmaxmangos]

Hi,

I'm looking for a wiki for my vB install and it has to be able to support markdown format.

Is this something Vault Wiki could do?

If I were to use Markdown Support by BOP5 would that add the needed support for our wiki pages in markdown format or is that something the pro version does?

Thanks

VaultWiki does not support Markdown at this time. Even if you were to install the BOP5 mod, the mod is not written in a way that would actually affect VaultWiki pages.

Oh ok, is this something you might be able to add support for in the future?

If enough people show interest in it, we could implement our own markdown solution for wiki pages. Aside from being able to simply paste-in text from read-me files, would you please explain any other benefits of markdown?

Hey,

Sorry for the late reply, Github uses markdown and we have a wiki on there we would like to put into vaultwiki.

For reference, here's the link to what Github uses: https://github.com/gollum/gollum

Hey,

This is our current wiki - https://github.com/mangoswiki/Wiki/wiki

We want to move this to our vB site, but still yet to find a wiki that supports markdown.

Do you have database access to your current wiki? Or would you be using copy-and-paste to "import" your current wiki pages?

Hey,

Sorry I've not replied in awhile. The current wiki is located on github.

We have all the wiki's in markdown in file format, so we would need to figure a way of importing those .md files into VW somehow.
