WP-Syntax Editor Integration Plugin Plugin

Adds new buttons to the visual and html editor window which allow to use WP-Syntax.

This plugin will add a button to both the visual and HTML WordPress Editor panel allowing you to easily insert code for WP-Syntax. WP-Syntax is a syntax highlighting plugin for WordPress which can be downloaded from https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-syntax/

Usage

  1. Select the text you want to have highlighted by WP-Syntax
  2. Click the button pre (WP-Syntax) in HTML editing mode or the icon with colored lines in visual editing mode
  3. Enter the language and starting line separated by a comma. The later is optional.

Installation

  1. Upload the wp-syntax-integration folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

FAQ

If I enter HTML tags in visual mode and click the button, most of the HTML tags disappear!

This is a known limitation which is caused by TinyMCE stripping out HTML tags which are not allowed according to its settings. A workaround is to do the editing in HTML mode (see usage).

I can’t get the TinyMCE (Rich Text) buttons to display!

Make sure that you have uploaded the entire contents of the wp-syntax-integration folder. If it still doesn’t work, drop me a line.
