I removed the plugin, concerned it was causing the problem. However, even after removing and restarting the Inkdrop app, when I press Shift+Ins or select Paste from the menu, it will paste as plain text instead of Markdown.
Is this capability broke with version 5.8.1?
[edit]
It only works if a single HTML url link or single image. It used to be I could copy several lines of HTML from a Web page and paste as Markdown directly into Inkdrop.
By default, it is possible to copy contents from a website and paste them as markdown. With Inkdrop 5.8.1, you no longer need a plugin as this function is supported natively.
Do you have changed your keymap?
By default shift+insert and ctrl+v is mapped to core:paste.
This feature works well for me. I can copy and paste complete websites as markdown.
Perhaps you can share which HTML elements cannot be converted?
As Lukas says, it works fine just by pressing the shortcut keys.
If it doesn’t work, I need to know how to reproduce it. Please let me know any further info for the repro.
@Lukas thanks for getting back to me. I verified and the aforementioned mapping is indeed core:paste. I looked through my notes and found a website that I copied from 2022 that I would have used the legacy paste-as-markdown plugin and doing it today it was in plain text. I also tried this on a fresh installation on another computer and it didn’t work either.
I recall being able to successfully paste as Markdown, since the new version changes, but it has been more rare compared to when it doesn’t work. I am just now circling back to this problem that has been frustrating.
Can you try doing a test from this link and copy starting from “Red Canary intelligence…” to “…manufacturing sectors” and see if the two links contained in the paragraphs paste as Markdown or does it leave out the link and paste as text?
I have tested this with a recent version of Google Chrome and Firefox

Red Canary intelligence analysts have discovered a new Windows malware with worm capabilities that spreads using external USB drives.
This malware is linked to a cluster of [malicious activity](https://www.virustotal.com/gui/collection/cea528052dc6137b9ec1f2b03342921894fd0bb3b21209320bfdcb4ff7d27fb8) dubbed Raspberry Robin and was first observed in September 2021 (cybersecurity firm Sekoia tracks this malware as "[QNAP worm](https://7095517.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/7095517/FLINT%202022-016%20-%20QNAP%20worm_%20who%20benefits%20from%20crime%20\(1\).pdf)").
Red Canary's Detection Engineering team detected the worm in multiple customers' networks, some in the technology and manufacturing sectors.
