##Download and Installation
Download and install the plugin using the Plugin Manager using the following URL. Refer to [[:Plugins]] on how to install plugins manually.
##Usage
If the page name ends with ''.md'' suffix, it gets automatically parsed using PHP Markdown Extra. To use that markup in other pages, the content must be embedded in a markdown block. For example:
<markdown>
Header 1
========
~~~
some code
~~~
Paragraph
Header 2
--------
- A
- simple
- list
1. And
2. numbered
3. list
Quite intuitive? *emphasis*, **strong**, etc.
</markdown>
###Front matter Front matter is a text block at the top of dokuwiki page with .md suffix. It begins and ends with '—'. Looks like this:
---
{{tag>test}}
---
I love this markdown extra plugin, the best feature is .md suffix. And I love tag plugin too, but I can't use it with page with .md suffix as {{tag>tat1 tag2 tag3}} syntax will not work within . So I added this front matter feature.
