This plugin applies all content filters to posts and comments and saves them back to the database. This is useful if you have been using Textile or Markdown (for example) and you want to switch to plain HTML.

Great idea ! I was asking myself “and if Markdown plugin does not work anymore on my blog in the future…”
i just tried this plugin but didn
tricky: what version of PHP do you have, and do you know what the memory limit is on your server?
So, how exactly does this plugin work? I’ve activated it but I don’t see anywhere in the dashboard where I can run it and convert my data.
Never mind. Just saw it. Wasn’t where I expected it to be. Sorry!
OK. Me again.
I’m getting out of memory errors out the wazoo. I even did an init_set to increase memory to 512MB and it still gave a fatal error.
Thoughts?
Hello,
I’ve just tried to apply your plugin on a WP 3.0.1 test installation but I’ve got a lot of “Problem with post #95. You should check it manually.” Do you think it should work in WP 3.0.1 ?
Yes, it’s working as intended in 3.0.1. That message simply means that there’s something unusual about that particular post, and you need to take a look at it rather than trusting the converter to get things right.
The converter is not very good at handling non-English characters, so if you have a lot of them, that’s probably the cause.
As I’m french, it could be the problem but I did understand what I missed. As I had desactivated Markdown plugin, all the posts using the syntax gave problem. After reactivating the plugin, there is no error message. Cool ! But it does seem to work :-( Not cool…
See this example:http://www.li-an.fr/blogtest/blog/2010/09/25/alternate-images/
I activatated Markdown, launch Mass Conversion. Everyting is OK. I desactivate Markdown… and no html :-( as you can see.
Did I miss something ?
