6 months ago Hi @ht-l1, thank you for raising this issue.
It's an unfortunate limitation of the way I managed to implement the main functionality of this plugin. I will not have the time to make the process more robust any time soon, but here are the steps needed to make it work for you:
- Check the HTML of the node. The code you select is probably wrapped with HTML elements and your selection is then probably selecting a partial HTML element.
- Copy your code snippet into the HTML editor directly. This way you'll get rid of the offending HTML tags. Don't worry that the WYSWIG editor shows the code snippet without any markup.
- Select the code snippet in the WYSWIG editor and click highlight.
The above procedure should enable you to highlight your code snippets. In the future, I recommend either writing code snippets manually, pasting without markup (cmd+shift+v, I think) or pasting into the HTML editor to avoid running into this issue.
