  I have set up JetPack to provide MarkDown functionality.
  I have switched off the visual editor.
  I am not using the GuttenBerg

  Ok, now when I do :

  “`cpp
  auto variable = template;
  “`

  It comes out as :

  auto variable = template<name>

  And if I try the [CODE language=’cpp’] approach that just does not get transformed into source code at all.

  which ever language I try the results are the same .. less than and greater then are coming out as html escape codes for them …

  WordPress is up to date etc .. I am probably a WP ‘power user’. Using Gorbachev’s CRAYON this all works fine.

  Please advise?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Urgh I new it that will happen … “less then” and “greater then” are coming out properly in these pages …

  The point is for me they are not … after markdown is transformed they come out as html escape codes , interlaced with the source code …
