Additional Context

Hello!

I faced with the problem, that prettier@3.1.1 and higher causes the problem, that VSCode doesn't format Pug files with prettier. If we install prettier3.1.0 and lower it works fine. When we install prettier@3.1.1 and higher, we see next indicator in footer panel of VSCode:

When we try to format it with command Format Document, we will have the following notification:

I also tried to set default formatter in VSCode settings and it didn't not help me.

If we try to format .pug files from CLI, it works perfect

Can you identify if this is an issue with the plugin, or maybe with the prettier version https://github.com/prettier/prettier/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#311

I tested this issue with other plugins and figured out, that its connected with the Prettier

Hi, Same here, I have installed Prettier and the Pug plugin as DevDeps. "@prettier/plugin-pug": "^3.0.0" "prettier": "^3.2.5"

When trying to indent, I get same suggestion window from VSCode for Jade :-/

PS:

• Linux Ubuntu OS
• Pug view using the template engine integrated to Express NodeJs

Hello, @mhabsaoui !

Its a problem with prettier extension as i can see. Here you can learn more - https://github.com/prettier/prettier-vscode/issues/3253

As for me, i found a solution to add path to prettier config in VSCode JSON settings -- "prettier.configPath": "./.prettierrc"
