Hendrik Schreiber created DOXIA-501:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Impossible to use ### header when also using Velocity
                 Key: DOXIA-501
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-501
             Project: Maven Doxia
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Module - Markdown
    Affects Versions: 1.4
            Reporter: Hendrik Schreiber


Markdown and Velocity don't play nicely with each other.

A regular Markdown H3 is usually written like this:

### My Header

This does not work with Velocity, because ## starts a comment. So, it needs to be escaped like this:

\#\#\# My Header // DOES NOT WORK

Unfortunately, this does not work, but simply generates "###" in the output, not a level 3 header. For some reason, Markdown does not interpret the "###".

There is a workaround posted on http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/maven-users/201303.mbox/%3c514AFC2F.9070106@apache.org%3e --- however, that is certainly not satisfying and very awkward.
