[[!template id=plugin name=mdwn core=1 author="[[Joey]]"]] [[!tag type/format]] This plugin lets ikwiki convert files with names ending in ".mdwn" to html. It uses the [[ikiwiki/markdown]] minimal markup language. This is the standard markup language used by ikiwiki, although some others are also available in other plugins. There are several implementations of markdown support that can be used by this plugin. The [original version of markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) can be used, or the [[!cpan Text::Markdown]] perl module. [[!cpan Text::Markdown]] also includes a markdown variant called [multimarkdown](http://fletcherpenney.net/MultiMarkdown/), which supports tables, footnotes, and other new features. Multimarkdown is not enabled by default, but can be turned on via the `multimarkdown` option in the setup file. Note that multimarkdown's metadata and wikilinks features are disabled when it's used with ikiwiki.
