Markdown to Confluence doesn't convert accurately

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      From a quick search through the issues/bugs reported, it looks like many people are having issues with Markdown in Confluence. Not sure if this is different, but it's worth noting since we would love to see improvement here.

      When pasting Markdown in the converter in Confluence, the text doesn't convert properly. An anonymized version is attached for what we tried converting. The text prints out as one continuous line of text, with no formatting whatsoever.

      If there were someway to integrate the actual converter (http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus) into Confluence, that would be great. Anything that improves this feature would be a step up and greatly appreciated.

      Thanks in advance.
