Can I use Github's extended blockquotes?

Hi, i have another issue that is somewhat related to this so i don’t want to open up a new request. Is it possible to use the newly added blockquote functionality [Markdown] An option to highlight a "Note" and "Warning" using blockquote (Beta) · community · Discussion #16925 · GitHub?

Hey,

I have moved your post to its own topic for easier searching by others who have the same question.

Currently this special syntax from Github is not supported in Inkdrop.
However, it is possible to create a plugin that implements this special syntax.

There is a plugin that accomplishes something similar using a different syntax. (admonition)
I’m not sure if this plugin still works with the latest version of Inkdrop.

Hello,
Since I also find the blockqute admonitions in GitHub extremely useful, and can see myself using them in Inkdrop as well, I created a plugin that provides them for Inkdrop.

gfm-blockquote-admonitions

This plugin is compatible with Inkdrop version >=5.6.0.
If you want to use this plugin with a stable version of Inkdrop, you will have to wait a few weeks until v5.6.0 is released.

Whoa!!! Lukas, you are too great :star_struck:
The GitHub-style admonitions are what I wanted to support in the future but you did it!
I’ll look into your plugin and see if we can make it one of the official plugins.

Just updated to v5.6.0 and found admonition stopped working :dizzy_face:

gfm-blockquote-admonitions is very nice (thanks for creating it btw), but I already have a lot of notes that use the previous plugin format, so it’d be nice if they could both co-exist.

admonition is one of the community-made plugins, and the author is not active these days, unfortunately.
You can update the plugin and send a pull request to his repo.

I personally wouldn’t recommend using those extended syntaxes for compatibility and portability.

GitHub Alerts are officially supported as of v5.8.0. Closing this.
