Printable Page

    I have WordPress 1.2 installed and running, and I have created a custom printable page for a client. My problem is that I use the content itself straight from the database because ad code needs to be inserted, and the Markdown plugin does not seem to work on the printable page.

    I used the same method to insert the code in the main blog index, and it worked fine. When I try to do it on the printable page, the special characters make it look horrible, and Markdown seems not to apply.

    What do you mean by “straight from the database” ?

    If you’re calling wp-blog-header.php and WordPress’ functionality, and outputting content with something like $post->post_content, try this:

    echo Markdown($post->post_content);

    If not, see if you can incorporate the plugin file with a regular PHP include, and access the Markdown function that way (although, thinking about it, the plugin as-is may not work, since it’s probably expecting WP-related functions to be defined).
