Thank you for your answers and suggestions, but I've decided to use markdown-deux.

Here's how I did it:

pip install django-markdown-deux

Then I did pip freeze > requirements.txt to make sure that my requirements file was updated.

Then I added 'markdown_deux' to the list of INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'markdown_deux',
    ...
)

Then I changed my template index.html to:

{% load markdown_deux_tags %}


    
        
    
    
        {% for post in post %}
        
{{ post.title }}
        
{{ post.pub_date }}
        {{ post.text|markdown }}
        {{ post.tags }}
        {% endfor %}
