Frequently asked questions.
Will it work in the Visual Editor?
Yes. You can switch between Visual and Text(HTML) mode. The plugin converts html entities back to the original characters.
The WYSIWYG editor (TinyMCE) is removing empty spaces!
Indeed, TinyMCE is well-known for destroying markup. Replace empty spaces with underscores __ . Underscores will be converted to empty spaces right before markdown conversion.
