TemplateSyntaxError

[Petar Pilipovic]

Hi all, I am currently under going a blog tutorial from http://matthewdaly.co.uk/blog/2014/01/02/django-blog-tutorial-the-next-generation-part-2/, and I am stuck whit makrdown, I am aware that Django not supporting it any more, but to keep things short I am geting this error.

TemplateSyntaxError: 'custom_markdown' is not a valid tag library: Template libr

ary custom_markdown not found, tried django.templatetags.custom_markdown,django.

contrib.admin.templatetags.custom_markdown,django.contrib.staticfiles.templateta

gs.custom_markdown

I have read some answer from stackoverflow, they propose that I put it in the setings.py in INSTALLED_APPS, which I did, bit I am stil getting the same error.

Can someone please explain to me what is going on?

I am a novice and I can say that Django is par excellence.

Tank you very much.

Your problem is that django.contrib.marup was removed as of Django 1.6 (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/internals/deprecation/#id2). You can install an external module, e.g. django_markup from https://github.com/bartTC/django-markup. Then add 'django_markup' to INSTALLED_APPS and use it in your templates like this:

{% load markup_tags %}
{{ my_markup_text|apply_markup:"markdown" }}
