Does not work #181

Closed levdopa closed 1 year ago

levdopa commented 1 year ago

I cloned the repository into ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/css-color The plugin does not show color previews. I tried it in konsole and I also tried it in my virtual machine which uses suckless terminal and it didn’t work both times.

This is my first time using a plugin so I thought maybe I was installing it wrong so I cloned nerdtree and nerdtree worked.

Do I need to do a : command to make it start when in vim? I think I installed it correctly so maybe this is the issue.

What type of file are you opening? The plugin does not work with all file types. Try creating a simple .css file and do something like: div { color=#99ffcc }

I tried it in a .css file .cpp file and .java file. Does not work in any of them.

If you open a CSS file, does the :scriptnames command then list it as having been loaded?

It does not appear in :scriptnames. I have ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/css-color and ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/css-color/after in my run time path so I don't know why it doesn't load. I got it to work in my virtual machine so I think I messed up vim on my main machine somehow. This is something for me to fix so I'll close this issue.

Possibly some kind of timing issue? Maybe :help packall / :help packloadall helps?

No worries.
