IZ MD Pages Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
IZ MD Pages transforms your WordPress website into a dual-format content hub by generating and serving clean, fast, and structured Markdown pages alongside standard HTML.
Optimized for AI search engines, LLMs, developer documentation, CLI tools, and feed readers, IZ MD Pages enables instant retrieval of your content in plain text Markdown with zero boilerplate.
Key Features
- Dedicated Markdown Endpoints & Query Params: Access the Markdown version of any post or page seamlessly via clean URLs (e.g.
https://example.com/sample-post/md) or query parameters (https://example.com/sample-post/?md), with automated canonical 301 redirects. - Automatic Discovery Link Headers: Injects standard
<link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown">into your<head>, making Markdown endpoints automatically discoverable by web crawlers, AI assistants, and browser extensions. - Advanced Gutenberg & Classic Editor Conversion: Converts Gutenberg blocks (headings, paragraphs, lists, quotes, tables, code blocks, images, embeds) and classic HTML into clean standard Markdown.
- Flexible Post Type Templates: Customize layout templates for each enabled post type using powerful placeholders (e.g.,
# {%post_title%}nn{%post_content%}). - Universal Header & Footer Templates: Configure global Markdown headers and footers (such as metadata banners, licensing, or call-to-actions) appended to all rendered Markdown pages.
