Settings are available for:
1. Posts.
2. Pages.
3. Comments.
4. Custom Post Types set to **public**.
5. A `[markdown]` shortcode is also available; for best results, place the opening and closing `[markdown]` shortcode tags on separate lines.
Uses [Parsedown](https://github.com/erusev/parsedown) and [Parsedown Extra](https://github.com/erusev/parsedown-extra).
