Markdown Migration

@Sollace  
Same.
 
That being said, I am used to Markdown, I just kind of wish things were more universal all over the internet.

It has probably been asked before but did I get that right from the first post?  
All the links and image embeds etc in my uploads will be converted automatically to the new format and will keep working, I don’t need to do anything manually?

@Background Pony #D0F6  
Yes. What you see right now is what you get.

@Roseluck  

It’s a bit late to be learning textile things I guess, but, you could do that already…  
[“link apostrophe”:/]’d = link apostrophe’d  
[“link comma”:/], = link comma, comma (down dooby doo down down)  
([“link parenthetical”:/]) = (link parenthetical)  
\[[“link bracketed”:/]\] = [link bracketed]
 

Oh yeah, that reminds me, the dash-greaterthan shortcut for an arrow doesn’t do the thing anymore. ->

Mark! Down!  
I looked ’round, and I knew there would be some debate  
Mark! Down!  
My mind raced. In the end, I was confused~  
Mark! Down!  
No one knew, how each symbol, symbol was used

Switch to mypal bro. Under active development and much more secure. Designed SPECIFICALLY for windows xp

Found a case where it’s inserting extra spaces at the end of lines after image links.
 
i.e.
 
One: >>2387654  
Two: >>2387654  
Three: >>2387654

@Sollace  
That’s intended. The converter is inserting   at the end of each line to preserve Textile appearance of newlines. That’ll stop happening after conversion is complete.

Just now noticed that the formatting in the 1st 3 posts of https://derpibooru.org/forums/writing/topics/nsfw-the-break-runm4ws-0-aka-rautamiekka-s-untitled-nsfw-mlp-g4-war-story-0 is very much fucked as a result.

Hopefully this wold help iOS users that use Mobile every other browser works but safari I get access denied while trying to Login with Safari

@Princess Celestia  
Okay!
 
If there’s anything else you know of that’s intentional, I guess you can just mention them. I’ll keep an eye out in case anything else looks broken.

If you code-noparse a post link, escaping backslashes appear preceding each greaterthan. Temporary effect of simultaneous textile-Markdown interference, or a genuine bug?

Welcome to phase 2, actual database changes are being made. Currently you’ll still write Textile, but it’ll now be written as Markdown to the database and rendered directly, without the conversion layer in-between.
 
@Background Pony #2D8C  
Temporary effect. No parse won’t really exist as grammar after migration is complete.

Just to be clear, the >>[image number]t and ”[text]”:/[currently-being-used site URL] syntax won’t be changing, correct?

@TexasUberAlles  
The image syntax will remain the same. The link syntax is changing, you will need to type [text](/relative/url)

Here’s a slightly niche question:
 
With Textile’s [bq][/bq] syntax, it’s possible to reduce the spacing below the blockquote box and the following material by putting them on the same line (no newline):

vs:

I don’t see a way to do this with Markdown’s > syntax:

Am I right that there won’t be a way to reduce the spacing? …unless escaping the newlines will work once Textile is disabled, which obviously I can’t test now..?

@Background Pony #2D8C  
Textile conversion is causing this right now. It’ll look much like your first example when live.

there is no way in tartarus my diseased brain will be able to remember that, thanks for including it in the explanation page

@TexasUberAlles  
Make a note of the off-site image syntax, while you’re at it. It’s very similar to the new link syntax.
 
![alt text](image url)

@Background Human  
Good catch.
