I will do whatever you recommend :-). I'm having trouble identifying black Friday features that are not supported in Goldmark - thebdocs mention the existence of such features several times, but they don't enumerate them. Do you have any insight?

I strongly believe in upgrading the newer and spec-compliant Commonmark based Goldmark library. It's a lot less headache from the aspect of ox-hugo.el maintenance and users also see a more consistent behavior in how the Markdown gets parsed. As a bonus, Commonmark also has this online Markdown parser to see what syntax works and doesn't: https://spec.commonmark.org/dingus/ (and you can almost bet that the same will be parsed by Goldmark -- that Hugo now defaults to). So, yes, if you haven't already, upgrade to the latest stable version of Hugo.
I would suggest posting on https://discourse.gohugo.io/ about the Blackfriday feature you liked, but didn't get into Goldmark.
The Hugo docs list which extensions or features work for which parser. |

I think I'll be fine, after looking through the main issues here. I am not quite certain what the current status of this package is, though -- are we currently just exporting to commonmark and bypassing ox-blackfriday, or is blackfriday MD close enough so that most stuff works with ox-blackfriday even if the website is using goldmark? |

Actually all the normal Markdown stuff that worked with Blackfriday with the Blackfriday-specific hacks added by ox-blackfriday, work for Goldmark as well! (Note that when switch to Hugo v0.60.0+ that uses Goldmark, you need this extra setting in your hugo sites' Once I have a separate ox-commonmark.el, I can remove those hacks and the Goldmark parsing will still work. |

My issue is that I use the Academic theme on one site, and v.3.0 of Academic doesn't work with Hugo 0.60.0+ and it's really complicated to upgrade versions of Academic (I would have to hand-upgrade through at least 11 versions each with its own set of breaking changes to get to a Hugo 0.60.0 version of Academic). |

@emacsomancer This cleanup will not make If your site is working fine with ox-hugo right now with the version of hugo binary you have, that will still stay the same. |

Hello,
I plan to do a cleanup of the ox-hugo package and move out the Blackfriday related code to a separate library that I will stop maintaining.
Hugo switched to using the Go Commonmark parsing library Goldmark as the default Markdown parser about 5 months ago with v0.60.0.
Given that that switch go Commonmark library happened a while ago, I am planning to stop maintaining the
ox-blackfriday.eland other Blackfriday related code inox-hugo.elby move those pieces out ofox-hugo.el.Before I make that switch, I want to gauge how many current ox-hugo users have upgraded to Hugo v0.60.0 or newer.
