I would like to ask a question on how to add an identifier to a parent element like a blockquote.
My markdown looks like this:

>test
>
>{#add}

Which will be rendert to the following HTML:

<blockquote>
    <p>test</p>
    <p id="add"></p>
</blockquote>

My assumption was that, because it is placed at the blockquote, the id will be attached there. Unfortunately it is attached to the p-element. I also tried it between > and test which attaches the id to the first paragraph tag.

My desired result should look like:

<blockquote id="add">
    <p>test</p>
    <p></p>
</blockquote>

Any advice on how to make it right would be great.

You need to add it just before (here) (and need a white line before the attribute)

{#add}
> test

Thank you very much. That was the only combination I had not tried.
