I've gotten in the habit of always adding the Format: header, which tells the Blogging bundle explicitly what format it should tell the server the post is in. I don't know why, but it seems like the Post to Markdown template no longer actually posts as markdown without it.

Basically, just add the line

Format: markdown

to the header of your post. If your blog supports it, you can also use things like

Format: markdown smartypants

and other variations.

Using the Post Blog Markdown template

I am posting while still in Markdown mode


If I convert to HTML everything disappears except for the title.


To work around: I have been creating the post in Markdown converting to HTML and then manually cutting and pasting to a new doc in post blog markdown format.


I must be doing something wrong this is not efficient. I seemed to work fine day before yesterday.


Posting to Wordpress blog on my site



Should I be using Markdown or MultiMarkdown as language?


Do I have to post to blog in HTML or shouldn't markdown work?
