Description

I guess the title says it all. The markdown filter doesn't seem to work for CCK fields like textareas, even though it is applied to the default format, (and all other input formats). Is this by design?

It is definitely not by design. If you set up that CCK textfield to support formats (so a format selector shows up), it should work with whatever format you have set up on your Drupal. Is that how you set up your CCK field?

Happened to me as well, then I have realized that the order of filters was wrong.

The order is not transparent in path /admin/settings/filters/[filterid] which shows it alphabetically - this misled me as the order was right.

Well, I was wrong - problem still exists. The only markdown which I have found to work is ** (making text strong). All other simply don't work and stripped off.

Hi, I have the same exact issue. CCK text field/text area with input filter using Markdown is not processing the Markdown syntax at all. I tried both using Markdown in the default "Full HTML" and also made a new one with ONLY Markdown, but still a no go. The syntax just doesn't render and I was trying simple stuff like:

## header
__foo__
*foo*
**foo**
