Steve,

Thanks a million !!  I owe you a coffee or three !!

This is as I expected, opsview team deployed a function that requires command line access to the box to create a file to function.

What should have been done to make the gui work correctly is in the service check, under advanced, when Markdown filter is selected another area should appear that allows us to enter all the commands like you have and retain that in the database.

We run our nagios/opsview deployment tiered fashion, only 4 people have command line access to such function. Everyone else has to run in GUI mode ...

Hopefully opsview team with fix this asap.

Steve, many thanks again.

Cheers,
Roberto

seriously?  ok.

1) install this plugin as /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_markdowntest:

# !/bin/sh
echo 'markdowntest OK **bold** _italic_ [Opsview](http://www.opsview.com/)'
exit 0

don't forget to chmod +x.

2) make an active service check called 'markdowntest', which calls
check_markdowntest with no arguments.  make sure you turn on Markdown
filtering for this check.

3) enable this check on some host and reload your Opsview config.

now, when you look at the status for that check, you should see
formatted output and a clickable link.  if you turn off Markdown
filtering for the check, you'll see the untranslated Markdown.

-steve
