How It Works
- When you publish a post, the plugin adds a link tag to the post's HTML head pointing to the markdown version
- Visitors (including AI crawlers) can access the markdown version by appending
.mdto the post slug - The markdown version includes full post metadata and properly formatted content
Example
If your post URL is: https://yourwebsite.com/my-awesome-post/
The markdown version will be available at: https://yourwebsite.com/my-awesome-post.md
And the HTML head will include:
<link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown" title="Markdown Version" href="https://yourwebsite.com/my-awesome-post.md">Installation
