Hello, 

First try today, very nice solution, I was looking for it during a long time.

My Wikipack is created, dirkvos.wikipackit.com. I want to change default extension .markdown to .md as I have hundreds of Markdown files that I would like to import in my Wiki.

Where can I do that ? I do not see it in settings ?

Hi Dirk,

Thanks for trying WikiPack! Changing the Markdown extension is a bit
tricky, but I can do it for you manually if you like.

If you don't want to keep any of the existing pages in your wiki, we
can remove them from the wiki (not Dropbox), change the Markdown
extension, and then select a different Dropbox folder to import the
new pages from.

Changing the Markdown extension for existing pages is possible, but we
can run into problems if there are two files in the same folder like
"MyPage.markdown" and "MyPage.md". I will add the ability to do change
the Markdown extension to the account settings page eventually, but I
think it will have to be up to the user to make sure that there aren't
any conflicting pages because the system can't choose which page they
should keep, the .markdown or the .md file.

Cheers,
mark
