Re: [Python-markdown-discuss] headerid extension custom slugify function error

[Dmitry S. <mi...@gm...>]

Try this:

from markdown.extensions.headerid import HeaderIdExtension
...
headerId = HeaderIdExtension([('slugify', my_slugify)])
md = markdown.Markdown(extensions=[headerId])

Initially I thought that extensions would accept dicts, but they seem
to only support lists of tuples.
