Plugin README Parser
WordPress README files are formatted using a version of the Markdown language. This plugin can be used to convert these to XHTML and display on a post or page of your site.
It’s ideal for plugin developers who wish to add instructions to their own site without having to duplicate effort.
Key features include…
- Convert your markdown README to XHTML and display in any post or page
- Use shortcodes or a direct PHP function call
- Responsive output of screenshots
- Output is cached for maximum performance
- Links automatically added to author and tag information
- Download links added
- Ability to specify which sections of the readme to exclude
- Can also omit specific lines of text
- Extra shortcodes available to display plugin banners and to return specific plugin data (download link, version number, etc)
- Google Translation suppressed on code output
- And much, much more!
