I would like to be able to use full markdown syntax on the forum (BBCode is just a pain to write quicly)
I don't know which version we are using but if no extension exists I guess we can easily plug a standalone parser before or after the BBCode one (I understood that our install is heavily modified anyway)
Personally I never took a look at how it works so perhaps someone else is better placed to make the changes

I tried to integrate http://parsedown.org alongside the BBCode parser : not working, they overlap each other
I also tried to activate one or another (by prepending "markdown" at the begining of the message, for tests) but the output is not great because of poor PhpBB CSS (biggest flaw: no margin on <p>)
so will see later when migrating the forum to a more recent plateform (if done one day)

:/
thx for your tests; it was a good idea

OK, thank you for trying. If you prefer to write in Markdown, maybe you can find an online converter markdown->bbcode that you can use before posting #justAnIdea
