I tried with latest of mkdocs & markdown-exec without better result

What am I doing wrong?

I think the docs are unclear, sorry: you have to enable the pymdownx.superfences Markdown extension too.

[elrandira]

thank you, I had to add the following in the mkdocs.yml and it worked.

markdown_extensions:
- pymdownx.superfences:
    custom_fences:
    - name: python
      class: python
      validator: !!python/name:markdown_exec.validator
      format: !!python/name:markdown_exec.formatter

[pawamoy]

You can just enable the extension without specific fences, the plugin will take care of adding them.

plugins:
- search
- markdown-exec

markdown_extensions:
- pymdownx.superfences
