Hi @throwaway69420-69420, are you calling

require('neoclip').setup()

in your setup?

@AckslD nope, where do I need to add this in use { "AckslD/nvim-neoclip.lua", -- for neovim clipboard history requires = { {'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim'}, }, } can you please give me the edited part of the code? here is my plugins.lua https://gist.github.com/throwaway69420-69420/319a498f34407092cfc4bb9f63a8d18d

btw I am new at using plugins what does require('neoclip').setup() do?

[AckslD]

Good that it works now :)

Most plugins written in lua have a setup function you need to call to initialize the plugin. This usually sets any needed keybindings/autocmds etc and acts much like vimscript files in a plugin folder, but gives more freedom to the user to choose when to initialize the plugin. Useful if you want to fo example lazy load plugins.

In the case of neoclip the setup simply adds some autocmds which listens to events triggered when you yank. So if you don't call setup these are never triggered.

Hope that helps :)
