Two dashes in code block get auto-converted into one long dash

    When I use WordPress’ “Code” block (standard, that comes with the Gutenberg), it won’t show two dashes on the frontend (“–“), but will convert them to a single long dash.

    Disabling the WP YouTube Lyte plugin fixes the problem.

    I’d prefer if the plugin could be “fixed” so I could keep it running, without this auto-reformatting occurring.

    can you try this code snippet;

    
add_filter( 'lyte_kinda_textureize', '__return_false' ):

    hope this helps,

    Hi,

    Thank you for the quick reply. The filter did sort the problem out.
    Though it would be great for that to be included in an upcoming plugin update (unless it messes something else up).

    In case anyone else runs into the same problem, what I did was include this line in my child theme:

    // BEGIN WP YouTube Lyte plugin filter
add_filter( 'lyte_kinda_textureize', '__return_false' );
// END WP YouTube Lyte plugin filter

    The only difference was using a semi-column at the end (“;”) instad of “:”. I suppose it was just a typo.

    indeed, ; instead of : ??

    I might make false the default in the next release.
