  • Beautiful!

    Does exactly what it says with no extraneous fuss!

  • Good idea that unfortunately only works partially

    Thank you for developing this plugin; it meets perfectly my needs. According to the settings, it should be possible to import data from the specific GitHub folder "website/main/docs". Unfortunately, this feature does not work as the folder structure can only be specified on one level. After consulting the developer, I was informed that this is a bug that was supposed to be fixed within a few days. However, the issue still persists three months later and even after a new version was released. I would have greatly appreciated clearer communication regarding this issue. The features promised in the plugin and by the support team should be reliably delivered. Unfortunately, I now find myself compelled to look for alternative solutions.

  • Amazing Plugin!

    I cannot recommend this plugin enough, it is the only viable solution to synch a markdown git repository with your WordPress page. Aakash is always quick to help you out if you have any questions.

  • Awesome Plugin and concept

    Easy interface to use. And very useful for collaborative docs and community pages.

  • Great

    Sometimes commits and pushes don't reflect properly, but that's enough. This is the way I wanted it.
