 * [@gappiah](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gappiah/) I have it running on
   my site. The issue I have with it is that I have to disable it every time I want
   to compose a new post, because it replaces the Block Editor. I only need Markdown
   for old posts.

 * I have tried that one, but it isn’t for parsing legacy Markdown posts; it provides
   its own editor, a bit like Classic Editor, with MD enabled.

 * I have had the same problem – WP is dog slow when I’m logged in (I’ve tried loading
   the site when I’m not logged in, e.g. by using a Chrome incognito window, and
   it loads fine). The problem is intermittent – it will go hours without any problems,
   and then it will take ages to load anything, and often end up loading no actual
   content – it will load headers, but no website content and it will say 0 entries,
   comments etc.
 * This problem started in 2011, and I fixed it then by disabling what was then 
   called the WP Stats plugin and Gravater (all Automattic features, in fact, except
   Akismet). Then they integrated that into Jetpack. More recently the intermittent
   slowness problem has reappeared with a vengeance. Looks like deactivating that
   service will be the only way to stop this problem. Unless, of course, Automattic
   fix whatever it is that’s making people’s sites slow.

 * I disabled most of the plugins I was using and for several weeks this problem
   didn’t occur. However, in the last week or so I have installed routine updates
   for Fast Secure Contact Form and Jetpack, and the problem has started again.
 * Last time this was happening, I fixed it by disabling WP Stats and Gravatar.

 * I just posted a fixed version to my own blog – you’ll need to upload it to the
   plugins directory of your WP install (say blog/wp-content/plugins) and extract
   it and it’ll start working:

 * I just filed the same report here and was given a way to edit it to make the 
   problem go away.
 * I uploaded the result to this address – you will need to upload it to your plugins
   directory (your blog’s path followed by /wp-content/plugins) and extract it –
   your web host should provide a file manager for that purpose.

 * I’ve had the same problem, and have solved it by editing the MT import file. (
   I’ve submitted a bug, and a patch, on Trac.)
 * You need to open the file wp-admin/import/mt.php, go to line 442, and you will
   find the following:
 *     ```
       if( !empty($line) )
         $line .= "\n";
       ```
   
 * You need to insert this code, under those two lines:
 *     ```
       if( empty($line) ) {
          if ( 'body' == $context )
            $line .= "\n";
          if ( 'extended' == $context )
            $line .= "\n";
          if ( 'comment' == $context )
            $line .= "\n";
          if ( 'excerpt' == $context )
            $line .= "\n";
          }
       ```
   
 * So, it preserves the newlines when the context is relevant, and discards them
   otherwise.
