How do get WMD-Editor to post Markdown to the server and not HTML?

Question

It seems that WMD-Editor is posting HTML to the server instead of the markdown. How can i get it to send the Markdown?

Answer 1

In the master branch of the SO version, the interesting line is line 2341:

Attacklab.wmd_defaults = {version:1, output:"HTML", lineLength:40, delayLoad:false};

Change this to ask for markdown instead:

Attacklab.wmd_defaults = {version:1, output:"markdown", lineLength:40, delayLoad:false};

.. and you'll get the Markdown instead.

Answer 2

In my version (mooWMD) you have to change the value at line 1343 from 'html' to 'markdown'.
I believe it is the same for the SO version (look for the 'output' configuration value).
