KIST to Wordpress Conversion Notes (Depreciated)
KIST Markup by Richard Rathe, v0.17, December 2024
Now Depreciated in Favor of BLIS
It turns out WP Blocks do not map easily onto plain HTML. At this time the WP organization is also in turmoil and the platform's long-term viability is in question. For these reasons (and others) I've decided to move away from WP.
The kist.pl program (App) can render text into HTML fragments tagged for use by Wordpress. For text only the -w switch is all that is required. You can also specify the full path for images after uploading them to a WP server.
kist.pl -w source.txt (text only)
kist.pl -w=http://wp.com/…/…/ (path to images)
Blocks Supported
Only a subset of KIST elements are supported as WP blocks.
- wp:heading
- wp:list
- wp:image
- wp:paragraph
- wp:preformatted
Elements Not Supported
- Quoting <q> (quotes are passed through unchanged)
