html to markdown #6813

Open pfennig59 opened 6 years ago

pfennig59 commented 6 years ago

Switching from html to markdown, as required due to deprecation of the HTML option, seems to be a major task. We do have about 200 pages that need to be converted.

As far as I can see there's only a single value to be set for the whole application and it's hidden in a config file. Wouldn't it make sense to have this as a per page setting, accessible online. As it is now I have to set the new value and all pages look wrong until they are replaced, or I do it the other way around and the result is the same, i.e., it takes much too long to have everything look nicely again.

Is there a way that is more efficient?

@pfennig59 You could use something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/html2markdown

Unless someone comes along actually needing it, it does clutter the UI.
