Some questions about Markdown

[Aaron Meurer]

I have some questions about Markdown. I am having some issues getting it to do things. I'm starting to get the impression that the Markdown renderer that Nikola uses kind of sucks. 

1. How do I indent additional lines from a bullet point? Usually I would do

- This is a bullet

  This is part of the same bullet

that is, just indent further lines by two spaces. But this doesn't work.

2. How do I get fenced code to work with syntax highlighting? ```py and ```python don't seem to produce Python highlighted code.

1.  Your second paragraph needs to be indented with 4 spaces or 1 tab.
   
2. I believe that fenced code blocks are part of GitHub's flavor of markdown, not native markdown. If you're using the fenced code extension, inspect the generated HTML to see if the appropriate CSS classes are being applied to the codeblock - it could be that your stylesheet doesn't have the appropriate code highlighting rules.

Hi,

There are plugins, 'code-block' or 'listing' in Nikola that can highlight Python code in post. Read more at

Sadly those plugins are not for markdown.

Happens to everyone :-)

Hi,

I think I have the same issue here...

I don't seem to be able to have code highlighting in my markdown posts. I can see the <div class="codehilite"> in the generated code, but no syntax highlighting. I use a theme derived from bootstrap for now.

Note that it is also the case with ipython notebook files.

What am I missing?

Best,

Guillaume

If you generated your own theme for blogging with IPython notebook files, you need to provided the ipython.min.css to your theme to have the code highlighted...

You'll need to add some CSS for the highlighting to get applied. The Python Markdown library uses Pygments.  You'll need to generate the highlight file and include it in your template (or steal it from another template that supports it).

Nikola should handle it automatically, via the CODE_COLOR_SCHEME setting.

I had interpreted his comment as saying he was using a custom theme, if that's not the case, then please disregard my suggestion.

I don't know about Guillaume, but I am definitely not using a custom theme.

ok thanks, I'm using a custom theme, but seem to remember having the same issue wit the default...


I'll give a try to all that...
