How to create a custom extension

[Eraldo]

Nice work! :D

I was just about to create a field for simpleMDE.
I am glad you have already done so.

I am curious if you have already thought of ways to add custom extensions.
At the moment I do not see a configuration for that in the widget's render function.
I order for me to use your field 'as is' it would be nice to include some kind of hook for mdx extensions.

Or do you have any other ideas/approaches/advice? What do you think?

PS: The option of being able to also add css styles would also be great.. but hey - a step at a time. ;)

1. Standard python markdown extensions like:
   https://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/extensions/index.html#officially-supported-extensions
   1. Custom extensions. Example: If I want to have '<:page_name|Page Name>'
      create an anchor link to an internal page.
      For configuration you could take a look at:

Hi @Eraldo , since this plugin doesn't support rendering markdown(the preview feature comes with SimpleMDE), you need to render it with python-markdown or other implements, so technically it supports https://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/extensions/index.html#officially-supported-extensions if you use python-markdown to render the markdown content.

Thanks

I am working on that.. and intend to create a pull request to bundle it with django-simplemde.
I stumbled across commonmark and drifted off reading about it. ^_^
