    11 Here is a short description of the plugin.  This should be no more than 150 characters.  No markup here.
     11Helping you write posts/pages in plain-text Markdown syntax, while switching-off Visual Editor. It sits on the shoulders of a giant, namely Jetpack.

    1313== Description ==
    1414
    15 This is the long description.  No limit, and you can use Markdown (as well as in the following sections).
     15This is a simple plugin to help you write posts or pages in plain-text Markdown syntax. And even allowing plaint-text Markdown for comments as well. It will also switch-off the Visual Editor, as you don't need distractions. This plugin sits on top of a giant's shoulder, namely Jetpack.

    17 For backwards compatibility, if this section is missing, the full length of the short description will be used, and
    18 Markdown parsed.
    19 
    20 A few notes about the sections above:
    21 
    22 *   "Contributors" is a comma separated list of wordpress.org usernames
    23 *   "Tags" is a comma separated list of tags that apply to the plugin
    24 *   "Requires at least" is the lowest version that the plugin will work on
    25 *   "Tested up to" is the highest version that you've *successfully used to test the plugin*. Note that it might work on
    26 higher versions... this is just the highest one you've verified.
    27 *   Stable tag should indicate the Subversion "tag" of the latest stable version, or "trunk," if you use `/trunk/` for
    28 stable.
    29 
    30     Note that the `readme.txt` of the stable tag is the one that is considered the defining one for the plugin, so
    31 if the `/trunk/readme.txt` file says that the stable tag is `4.3`, then it is `/tags/4.3/readme.txt` that'll be used
    32 for displaying information about the plugin.  In this situation, the only thing considered from the trunk `readme.txt`
    33 is the stable tag pointer.  Thus, if you develop in trunk, you can update the trunk `readme.txt` to reflect changes in
    34 your in-development version, without having that information incorrectly disclosed about the current stable version
    35 that lacks those changes -- as long as the trunk's `readme.txt` points to the correct stable tag.
    36 
    37     If no stable tag is provided, it is assumed that trunk is stable, but you should specify "trunk" if that's where
    38 you put the stable version, in order to eliminate any doubt.

    47 1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress

    49 1. (Make your instructions match the desired user flow for activating and installing your plugin. Include any steps that might be needed for explanatory purposes)

    5226== Frequently Asked Questions ==
    5327
    54 = A question that someone might have =
     28= Can this plugin be installed if the Jetpack module is also installed =
    5529
    56 An answer to that question.
     30Yes you can. But you will not be able to use the "Markdown" module from Jetpack. I would advise that if you need Markdown support, and you also need to use Jetpack, then only use Jetpack only and use its Markdown functionality. Else if you are not a Jetpack user, this plugin is what you need for Markdown support.
    5731
    58 = What about foo bar? =
     32= Why use this plugin instead of Jetpack =
    5933
    60 Answer to foo bar dilemma.
     34Jetpack is normally a heavy plugin with lots and lots of functionalities which you might not even be using. So if you just need the "Markdown feature" of Jetpack, use *this* plugin only, that is why "Mark It Down Wordpress" was born for.
     35
     36= Will You Supporting This Plugin Actively =
     37
     38Yes, I will. I use this plugin in all my blogs and even for some of my clients. So it's in my honest interest to keep this plugin active and supported. If you have any question, shoot me an email at <markitdownwordpress@7php.com>

    6240== Screenshots ==
    6341
    64 1. This screen shot description corresponds to screenshot-1.(png|jpg|jpeg|gif). Note that the screenshot is taken from
    65 the /assets directory or the directory that contains the stable readme.txt (tags or trunk). Screenshots in the /assets
    66 directory take precedence. For example, `/assets/screenshot-1.png` would win over `/tags/4.3/screenshot-1.png`
    67 (or jpg, jpeg, gif).
    68 2. This is the second screen shot
     421. This screen shot description corresponds to installation step 3 above, which instructs: Enable Markdown for posts & pages, by manually checking the checkbox at: **Settings > Writing > 'Use Markdown for posts and pages'**
     432. This screen shot description corresponds to installation step 4 above, which instructs: to enable Markdown for comments as well, check the checkbox here also: **Settings > Discussion > 'Use Markdown for comments'**

    91 "installation."  Arbitrary sections will be shown below the built-in sections outlined above.
    92

    95 Ordered list:
    96 
    97 1. Some feature
    98 1. Another feature
    99 1. Something else about the plugin
    100 
    101 Unordered list:
    102 
    103 * something
    104 * something else
    105 * third thing
    106 
    107 Here's a link to [WordPress](http://wordpress.org/ "Your favorite software") and one to [Markdown's Syntax Documentation][markdown syntax].
    108 Titles are optional, naturally.
    109 
    110 [markdown syntax]: http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax
    111             "Markdown is what the parser uses to process much of the readme file"
    112 
    113 Markdown uses email style notation for blockquotes and I've been told:
    114 > Asterisks for *emphasis*. Double it up  for **strong**.
    115 
    116 `<?php code(); // goes in backticks ?>`
     64- By default, toggle the checkbox to true for Settings > Writing > 'Use Markdown for posts and pages'
     65- By default, toggle the checkbox to true for Settings > Discussion > 'Use Markdown for comments'
     66- In plain-tex editor mode, remove the short-formatting buttons, e.g [b, i, link, b-quote, del].. etc. Make the editor, distraction free.
     67- Make an effort to provide Markdown buttons for the equivalent of [b, i, link, b-quote, del], just like bbcodes.
