1. Install the extension
2. Load github.com

Example markdown:

1. item 1

	code block

2. item 2

3. item 3

Renders as:

1. item 1

	code block

1. item 2

2. item 3

See attached screenshot when viewing in Chrome.

Is it possible to remember the scroller's position of the current tab before processing. At the moment I'm using your extension but when I have a long markdown file and refresh the page I'm losing my position.

Steps to reproduce:

• open long markdown file
• scroll down to the bottom of the page
• refresh the page
• you are positioned in the top

Unfortunately GitHub does it wrong too.

Raw

|A|B|
|---|---|
|1: `a|b`|2: `c\|d`|

Rendered this should show the code runs exactly as above (1: a pipe b, 2: c backslash pipe d)

Are there any plans to add support for task lists, like GitHub?

Example: https://github.com/blog/1825-task-lists-in-all-markdown-documents

First of all, I'd like to thank you for developing this extension. It seems to be the best of the Markdown Viewers available on the Chrome Web Store.

One feature which I wish was supported is custom stylesheets. The provided themes are great, but I wish I could tweak the CSS on a couple of them to suit my preferences. I think there would be demand for this from other users too, given Markdown's popularity among developers.

Are you open to contributions on this? If so, I could try to implement something over the next couple of weeks and submit a pull request.

Thanks,
David

I'm using markdown to take notes on machine learning, which requires a good few formulae.

Can this plugin support MathJax?

I try finding a simple way export Readable document from markdown, until I meet this markdown viewer. However, the PDF file saved from chrome has some problem with styling. (for example, the margin line with page breakings seem not so beautiful, and some table's style also missed for some themes), so if there is a way to export a XHThtml file that get all js, images tables in a file, the plugin will be the perfect one!

here are some requirements:

• usable toc and anchor
• included images(svg, png, jpg etc.) in the exported file
• same style tables as rendered( will be perfect if all thing get the same as rendered page)

Here's a screenshot. Python code is highlighted fine but Vim code is not highlighted.

I checked and Vim is in prism's list of supported languages.

Let me know if you need more information.

Env: Chrome 64, Markdown Viewer 3.4

Hi
Does this extension support remote files ?
For me it works only when I open the local md file with Chrome, remote file (http://host/file.md) is rendered as is.
Thanks

IMHO the line lengths are to long for fast and fluent reading at the line breaks.

Making the column width adjustable (other than the fixed 888px) would also be a simple possibility here...

Compare (888px):

with (550px, edited with developer tools):

...concerning readability

How about add support for <details> <summary> to make a dropdown?

like this:

When headers in the .md file consist no alphanumeric characters, the TOC falls back to generate anchor link of '#-'.
This results in multiple TOC items jump to the same content, whence is the first occurrence of the non-alphanumeric header.
Maybe consider adding auto prefixes to the generated anchor link to mitigate this issue?

Could you make UTF the default encoding for HTML preview? Or at least an option to set it.

When I try to rewrite my latex resume with markdown, I think ti's a beautifiation to add some font-awesome icons in the resume, however I found the plugin not has the supportment. Is it a good idea add font-awesome support? If so, I'll take it in hand.

Are there any plans to port the extension to Firefox using the WebExtensions API?

Add latex lang to prism please

"space + space + Enter“ can not exit the blockquotes,only"Enter + Enter" can exit the blockquotes

At times, MarkDown documents come with additional YAML metadata at the beginning of a document. This is often referred to as a frontmatter and is indicated by triple dashes in the first line and after the YAML keys.

Currently the Marked compiler renders it as a horizontal rule, the raw data structures written out and a third-level headline in the beginning of the document and as such the false headline also at the beginning of the Table of Contents (ToC).

I often use checkboxes in my Markdown, which are supported in Github markdown:

• Item

It would be nice if markdown-viewer also supported them!

I’d like to principally “allow all” matching URLs but I’d like to exclude those on github.com, because Github includes .md etc. in regular URLs, e.g. https://github.com/simov/markdown-viewer/blob/master/README.md is a HTML document, and if I enable “Allow all” then the extension is trying to process it, leading to odd results (some items are badly shifted).

I see that it’s not possible to use regexes in the domain section of the options, right? I tried ^(?:(?!github\.com)) but the extension didn’t add this pattern to the list.

Hello, why I can not use the tasklist in version 2.9?
such as:

• GFM task list 1

If There is a title which contains both latin letters and chinese characters such as "三级标题 h3 in chinese", only the english part is converted into an HTML internal link. The URL is like:

file:///file_path/markdown_viewer_bug_test.md#-h3-in-chinese

Try this file:
markdown_viewer_bug_test.md.zip

Generally, to handle chinese character we need to do encoding in UTF-8. For example,
https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/万维网联盟
is actually
https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%B8%87%E7%BB%B4%E7%BD%91%E8%81%94%E7%9B%9F

I find this similar to #41

Google Chrome
Version 63.0.3239.132 (Official Build) (32-bit)

I have the following <pre> tag:

     src /
        content/
        images/
        scripts/
        styles/
     
     templates/
        partials/ 

In Chrome, the markdown-viewer extension renders a flat string:

<pre> src / content/ images/ scripts/ styles/ templates/ partials/ </pre>

Whereas, the same <pre> tags renders perfectly when posted to github.

id and anchor not work, when heading not include English or Number.
sidebar jumping not work too.

example:

# 测试一
## 测试二
### 测试三

output

<div id="html" class="markdown-body">
    <h1 id="-">测试一</h1>
    <h2 id="-">测试二</h2>
    <h3 id="-">测试三</h3>
</div>

<div id="_toc">
    <div id="_ul">
        <a href="#-">测试一</a>
        <div id="_ul">
            <a href="#-">测试二</a>
            <div id="_ul">
                <a href="#-">测试三</a>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

With private Github repos, when I click on the Raw button for any Markdown document, the URL that is formed looks like this:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/user/repo/master/README.md?token=xxxxxxxxxxxx

I’ve modified the regex so that it catches the ? after the .md extension. This works well:

\.(?:markdown|mdown|mkdn|md|mkd|mdwn|mdtxt|mdtext|text)(?:#.*|\?.*)?$

Perhaps you’d be willing to improve the defaults in the extension? It’s fantastic anyway!

as in the picture below, the back anchor start in a new line:

what about make it appear at the end of relevant footnote like this:

I think minor change will make it more clear about which footnote the back anchor goes.

PS: I was using remark for rendering

gitlab readmes are matched by your app, would be nice if you add gitlab to exclude_matches in manifest json

Would be great to have an exclude list, like it's implemented on plugins like AdBlock "Exclude this site/domain".

case 0: a table at indentation level 0, after a paragraph (at level 0) -- this should render the table not-indented

• case 1: a table at indentation level 1, after a list item at level 1 -- this should render the table indented once

  A	B
  1	2

  • case 2: a table at indentation level 2, after a list item at level 2 -- this should render the table indented twice

    A	B
    1	2

case 3: a table at indentation level 1, after a a paragraph (at level 0) -- this should render the raw text into a code block

|A|B|
|---|---|
|1|2|

Thanks for writing this great plugin! It's great for previewing markdown files. I also use it to convert markdown to PDF, using the print functionality of my browser. Unfortunately, there aren't any print styles in the themes. This adds a border to the GitHub theme, as Huangjj27 noted in #36. It also creates awkward page-breaks, which can be really annoying.

I would greatly appreciate any improvement in this area.

We are currently running with Chrome extension and
I personally think this is a great and useful function.

In the case of
[Monit](https://192.168.2.141:20080/failsafe\(monit\).md)

it’s not handling as escape due to there’s
Monit.md)
exist.

Thank you.

It may be the behaviour priority of firefox 57(default to give me a choice to save the file or to open it with other local that causes the unrecognizing of such files.

and from the issue #12, I know that the firefox version does still not to get local markdown file rendered. When will it get support?

The Marked compiler renders first level headlines (lines starting with a single #) as raw (blue) HTML links into the Table of Contents outline. This may be due to #29. Remark doesn't show this behaviour, either.

Only the GitHub and GitHub dark themes are affected.

My main use case for this extension has been to preview markdown files under development. It would be incredibly useful to have an option that would enable the plugin to rerender the file if the file has been changed.

As an alternative, rather than attempting to detect file changes, the extension can also rerender based on some period (1 second, 5, second) set by the user.

example

[bla](bla(bla).md)

result

bla.md)

Of course I can use %28 and %29 instead ( and ) in urls, but title in browser will be incorrect

for example

SharedPtr\<Object\>

result:

SharedPtr\

If a markdown local file has got links to other markdown local files, when clicked the new page does not show the beginning of the file. It seems it keep the current scroll position of the previous file.

Armando

You should be able to us - [ ] to create a todo list action, but it does not render it properly.

Are there any plans to add support for emoji, like GitHub?

The current method of enabling this viewer on non-localhost URLs (via the options pane) is cumbersome and doesn't scale well. For example, I'd like to publish a markdown page for project documentation. While I'm okay saying, "This page requires the Markdown Viewer", I'm not okay saying "... and then go to options, the url for this site, then change the regex to ...(obscure regex here)...". That's just... gnarly.

I'd like to see an option (or default) for this viewer to handle any page served with Content-Type: text/markdown. This is the de-facto standard, and the IETF has published an informational spec, which I assume lends some degree of legitimacy to this mime type.

Thoughts?

I use HTML comments <!-- --> to add comments to my markdown. These shouldn't show up in the HTML preview as those are HTML comments. They don't show up on github.com, but does show up in preview generated by markdown-viewer.

Hallo,

What do you think about a feature to reload files automatically when it changes in the background?
An alternative would be to reload (or check) the file in a fixed time interval.

Kind regards,
Dirk

Letters like ä,ü,ö,ß are not displayed

With some theme, the pre/code section that starts with 4 spaces are all squashed to the left edge, ignoring the space characters inside.

One of such theme is GODSPEED. Themes like GHOSTWRITER works as expected.

The Remark compiler does not apply the selected theme to the Table of Contents. The Marked compiler however applies it partly, and only for first level headlines, which are presented as links.

Lower levels unfortunately do not inherit a theme's font setting in any way.

The following markdown is not rendered correctly

# Indentation Test

### Header 1
  - Bulletpoint 1
### Header 2 <---
  - Bulletpoint 2

On github it looks like this: https://gist.github.com/wischi-chr/dc48d7957e80fb4e2024f7f304489ced

but it's rendered like that:

Would it be possible to add an option to override specific CSS rules in a chosen theme?

For example, I'd like to be able to specify a maximum width for images, while using the default GitHub theme. A field in the advanced options, where I could enter my own CSS, would allow me to achieve this:

.markdown-body img {
    max-width: 20em;
}

The .markdown-body class selector would be required to override the specificity of the default stylesheet (which is annoying and confusing), however just appending this CSS to the end of the selected theme style sheet would be all that's required to get it working.
