 * Hi,
 * Thanks for this plugin.
 * I swapped from jp-markdown and I’m having problems with several shortcode that
   do not “unwrap” when parsedown-wp is enabled.
 * Ex:
    `[embed]https://youtbekjsdhkjsdbfkjh[/embed]`
 * gets broken and appears on frontend as
 * `https://youtbekjsdhkjsdbfkjh[/embed]`
 * I get the same behavior on several websites and with other shortcodes then natives
   ones.
 * Can you help ?
 * Thanks
 * Hubert

 * Hi again,
 * It seems to NOT work properly when there is a full (with `http://`, not relative)
   URL in the `[EMBED ]` shortcode. When using a relative URL for an image, it does
   work OK. If the same image is called by its full URL it is half gobbled by parsedown-
   wp.
 * Cheers

 * Hi Hubert,
 * Thanks for taking the time to let me know. I’ve been pretty busy this week but
   I will take a look at this over the weekend. I suspect the shortcode filters 
   may be firing after Markdown, which would lead to mass confusion all around.

 * Yeah, this is broken still, eight months later. However the very old Markdown
   Extra plugin from 2013 still works, so until this “new” one gets fixed, its best
   to just use the oldie (but goodie): [https://littoral.michelf.ca/code/php-markdown/php-markdown-extra-1.2.8.zip](https://littoral.michelf.ca/code/php-markdown/php-markdown-extra-1.2.8.zip)
