## Description
Worddown is a powerful WordPress plugin that enables you to export your pages and
posts to markdown files, making them perfect for integration with AI chatbots and
other markdown-based systems.
#### Key Features
* Export pages and posts to markdown files
* Support for custom page builders (ACF Flexible Content, Elementor, etc.)
* REST API endpoints for programmatic access
* WP-CLI commands for automation
* Multilingual support
* Background export mode for large sites
* Customizable HTML content filters
#### Export Methods
1. WordPress Admin Dashboard
2. WP-CLI Commands
3. REST API Endpoints
#### WP-CLI Support
Export your content directly from the command line:
```
wp worddown export
```
For large sites, use background mode:
```
wp worddown export --background
```
#### REST API
Access export functionality programmatically through REST API endpoints:
* GET /wp-json/worddown/v1/files — List all exported markdown files
* GET /wp-json/worddown/v1/files/{post_id} — Get specific file content
* POST /wp-json/worddown/v1/export — Trigger export
#### Custom HTML Content Filters
Customize your markdown output using WordPress filters:
```
add_filter('worddown_custom_html_content', function($content, $post_id, $post_type) {
if ($post_type === 'page') {
$content .= 'My custom HTML for page ' . $post_id . '
';
}
return $content;
}, 10, 3);
```

## Installation
1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/worddown` directory, or install

## FAQ
### Can I use this with my custom page builder?
Yes! Worddown provides filters that allow you to inject custom HTML content from
any page builder before the markdown conversion process.
### Does it support multisite?
Yes, Worddown works with WordPress multisite installations. You can use the —url
parameter with WP-CLI commands to target specific subsites.
### How do I handle large exports?
For large sites, we recommend using either the background mode via WP-CLI (`wp worddown
export --background`) or the REST API with the background parameter enabled.
### How do I update translations or fix missing strings?
Translations for plugins hosted on WordPress.org are delivered as **language packs**(
files under `wp-content/languages/plugins/`). WordPress checks for newer packs when
you check for updates.
* **Dashboard:** Go to _Dashboard Updates_ and use **Update translations** (when
WordPress offers it), or update plugins/themes and let WordPress refresh translations
in the same flow.
* **WP-CLI:** Run `wp language plugin update worddown` (or `wp language core update`
to refresh all language data).
* **Automatic updates:** By default, WordPress can install translation updates
in the background (`WP_AUTO_UPDATE_TRANSLATION` is true unless your host disables
it).
New or changed strings appear in language packs after translators update them on
[translate.wordpress.org](https://translate.wordpress.org/). You cannot force that
from inside the plugin; releasing a new plugin version makes new strings available
for translators, and updated `.mo` files reach sites through the normal translation
update process.
If you use **Loco Translate** or placed a **custom** `worddown-*.mo` in `wp-content/
languages/plugins/`, that file overrides the pack until you **re-sync** in Loco
or **delete** the override so WordPress can download the current pack again.
