[ckan-dev] Problems with Markdown support in CKAN content

Mon Nov 18 07:12:46 UTC 2013

Hi Nigel,

thanks for this clarification. That explains why all my approaches failed ;-)

Maybe it is worth to add a note about that into the CKAN docs and/or  
the Markdown links in the CKAN GUI. Shall I create an issue in GitHub  
about that?

Cheers
Ralf
