and here are the plugins I have installed:

    \   'do': 'cd ruby/command-t && ruby extconf.rb && make'
    \ }
Plug 'scrooloose/nerdcommenter'
Plug 'itchyny/lightline.vim'

Plug 'Valloric/YouCompleteMe'
Plug 'jistr/vim-nerdtree-tabs'
Plug 'jiangmiao/auto-pairs'
Plug 'craigemery/vim-autotag'

I am also using the tomorrow-them for vim

I would like to know how to remove this highlighting

That’s the vim spell checker. The pink background it's highlighting a spell error. You could either

• Correctly set your spell language (:help spelllang) in your .vimrc (mine has set spelllang=en,it)
• Avoid to enable the spell check in the plugin: put in your .vimrc, before Plug 'gabrielelana/vim-markdown' the following line let g:markdown_enable_spell_checking = 0
• Disable the spell checking for all markdown files: put in your .vimrc the following line au FileType markdown setlocal nospell

If you don't know what to choose, choose solution number 2

Let me know if this works for you

This seems to have solved the issue. Thanks!

You're welcome 😉

Would be helpful to put a comment somewhere in the README about this.
