feat: Complete markdown syntax refinement and variable protection
✅ New cleaner syntax implemented: - [card:type] instead of [card type='type'] - [button:style](url)Text[/button] instead of [button url='...' style='...'] - Standard markdown images:  ✅ Variable protection from markdown parsing: - Variables with underscores (e.g., {order_items_table}) now protected - HTML comment placeholders prevent italic/bold parsing - All variables render correctly in preview ✅ Button rendering fixes: - Buttons work in Visual mode inside cards - Buttons work in Preview mode - Button clicks prevented in visual editor - Proper styling for solid and outline buttons ✅ Backward compatibility: - Old syntax still supported - No breaking changes ✅ Bug fixes: - Fixed order_item_table → order_items_table naming - Fixed button regex to match across newlines - Added button/image parsing to parseMarkdownBasics - Prevented button clicks on .button and .button-outline classes 📚 Documentation: - NEW_MARKDOWN_SYNTAX.md - Complete user guide - MARKDOWN_SYNTAX_AND_VARIABLES.md - Technical analysis

# ✅ Converter Fixed - All Content Now Displays!
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem Solved! 🎉
|
||||
|
||||
The visual builder and code mode now display **ALL content** from templates, not just the last button!
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Issue
|
||||
|
||||
**Before:** Only the last button showed in the editor
|
||||
- Visual Builder: Only 1 button visible ❌
|
||||
- Code Mode: Only 1 line of HTML ❌
|
||||
- Preview: Everything rendered correctly ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:** The `htmlToBlocks()` converter was:
|
||||
1. Only looking for `[card]` syntax
|
||||
2. Not recognizing `<div class="card">` HTML (from markdown conversion)
|
||||
3. Skipping all unrecognized content
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Solution
|
||||
|
||||
### Updated `converter.ts` ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**What Changed:**
|
||||
1. ✅ Now recognizes **both** `[card]` syntax AND `<div class="card">` HTML
|
||||
2. ✅ Properly extracts all cards regardless of format
|
||||
3. ✅ Preserves all content between cards
|
||||
4. ✅ Handles markdown-converted HTML correctly
|
||||
|
||||
**New Regex:**
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Match both [card] syntax and <div class="card"> HTML
|
||||
const cardRegex = /(?:\[card([^\]]*)\]([\s\S]*?)\[\/card\]|<div class="card(?:\s+card-([^"]+))?"[^>]*>([\s\S]*?)<\/div>)/gs;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**New Card Detection:**
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Check both [card] and <div class="card">
|
||||
let cardMatch = part.match(/\[card([^\]]*)\]([\s\S]*?)\[\/card\]/s);
|
||||
|
||||
if (cardMatch) {
|
||||
// [card] syntax
|
||||
content = cardMatch[2].trim();
|
||||
cardType = typeMatch ? typeMatch[1] : 'default';
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
// <div class="card"> HTML syntax
|
||||
const htmlCardMatch = part.match(/<div class="card(?:\s+card-([^"]+))?"[^>]*>([\s\S]*?)<\/div>/s);
|
||||
if (htmlCardMatch) {
|
||||
cardType = htmlCardMatch[1] || 'default';
|
||||
content = htmlCardMatch[2].trim();
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works Now
|
||||
|
||||
### Loading Flow:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Template loaded (markdown format)
|
||||
↓
|
||||
2. Markdown converted to HTML
|
||||
[card] → <div class="card">
|
||||
↓
|
||||
3. htmlToBlocks() called
|
||||
↓
|
||||
4. Recognizes BOTH formats:
|
||||
- [card]...[/card]
|
||||
- <div class="card">...</div>
|
||||
↓
|
||||
5. Extracts ALL cards
|
||||
↓
|
||||
6. Creates blocks for visual builder
|
||||
↓
|
||||
7. ALL content displays! ✅
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## What's Fixed
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Visual Builder:
|
||||
- **Before:** Only 1 button visible
|
||||
- **After:** All cards and buttons visible!
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Code Mode:
|
||||
- **Before:** Only 1 line of HTML
|
||||
- **After:** Complete HTML with all cards!
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Preview:
|
||||
- **Before:** Already working
|
||||
- **After:** Still working perfectly!

- Cards with complex HTML inside
|
||||
- ✅ Content preserved correctly
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### 4. **Empty Cards**
|
||||
- Cards with no content
|
||||
- ✅ Handled gracefully
