[O] help with custom exporter

[Stephen J. Barr]

Greetings,

I am trying to modify ox-md.el. I do not know too much emacs lisp so please bear with me.

Hypothetically, if I want to modify the exporter to add a "THIS DOCUMENT BY: " at the beginning, could I do:

(defun org-md-template (contents info)
  "Return complete document string after Markdown conversion.
CONTENTS is the transcoded contents string.  INFO is a plist used
as a communication channel."
  (concat "THIS DOCUMENT BY: " (plist-get info :author) "\n" contents)
)

However, I get an error:

org-md-template: Wrong type argument: characterp, #("Stephen

What is the output type of plist-get? Not a string?

Thanks,

Stephen
