I have a long dialog that I saved with me another person conversing. I want to use AlertsPerfect plugin to make my contribution light green (>[!tip me]) and the other person blue (>[!note them]).
Instead of adding > to the start of every line manually, is there a way to select several paragraphs and quote them all? I can add the AlertsPerfect tag at the start of each block using copy/paste.
But, I don't see quote on the markdown toolbar. I even installed "Menu items, Shortcuts, Toolbar icons" plugin, which is great but doesn't do what I need.
I added this to my Markdown Alerts plugin, you can select some text and either convert it to a quote or an alert (or toggle the different alert types if selected text is already a quote or an alert)
Note: toggling alert types also works without having a text selection, as long as your cursor is anywhere in a block quote
Not sure if I’m using it wrong. I selected a series of paragraphs and pressed ctrl+shift+a and all of the selected text was replaced by “> [!NOTE]”. Also. if I ctrl+shift+a anywhere but the first position of a paragraph that “> [!NOTE]” appears in the middle of the paragraph and doesn’t make an alert.
If I ctrl+shift+a on individual paragraphs, each gets that ‘note’ header and that text “[!NOTE]” appears in the display pane.
I turned off AlertsPerfect to try this so the 2 plugins wouldn’t compete.
that's how it behaved before the 1.2.0 update that I released,
It looks like joplin plugin repo hasn't picked up 1.2.0 yet (so you're still on 1.1.3), you can download the 1.2.0 version here (or wait until the joplin plugin updates): Release v1.2.0 · bwat47/joplin-markdown-alerts · GitHub
I just downloaded the latest version. It does handle multiple paragraphs much better. Easy to change into a note then change the header for tip, etc! Thanks!!
