I created a non-Admin user and it’s the same as an anonymous one. It appears that the pre tags only show up for Admin users.

Also, this is a brand new WP install with no other plugins activated and whatever the default theme is.

I did the same as <b>llizard</b> (changed back to default permalink) and it solved the problem for me too.

You can add this to your style sheet

#cat {
width: 297px;
}

I disabled comments pagination under Settings – Discussion and that fixed it for me. So if you don’t care if your comments are on pages, then that’s an easy fix.

Thanks Amit. Another example is

https://tinyurl.com/mk5hb

where the main posts includes a “not equal” operator, but similar code in the comments shows nothing – presumably interpreting those as html tags. Thanks for taking a look at it.

When I put ampersands in my code in the comments, it changes them to escaped ampersands. It doesn’t seem to do that in the main post. Am I doing something wrong. WP 1.5.2. See here for an example https://www.dailydoseofexcel.com/archives/2006/08/21/code-in-comments/#comment-20693

chidade: I unchecked “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” under Options – Writing, and it took care of this exact problem for me. However, once I did that (knowing it was just hiding the problem) I investigated my post a little closer. I had a less than sign above where the problem was happening. WP interpreted that as a tag, of course, which confused the heck out of it. I changed the less than sign to & l t ; without the spaces, rechecked the Option and everything worked fine.

amit: When (if) you look into the blank line thing, check out line 1933 of geshi.php. It looks like the line that should be handling blanks, but maybe there’s a problem with the syntax or something. (Everything I know about php I learned from reading your code and geshi.php over the last few days, so discount what I say as appropriate.)
Another problem I have: See https://www.dicks-blog.com/archives/2004/12/09/selection-stats/ a long comment that uses a line continuation character (space underscore) isn’t all green as it should be. I’m (almost) sure the line continuation character is common to VBA and VB. I presume this is a problem in geshi’s code parsing, but I didn’t know where to report this potential bug. If you want to point me to the place to suggest this, I will do it.
Thanks

amit: Just to be safe I downloaded it again, but I have the same problems. The modifications I made are to set linenumbers to false, change the gpath, comment out the fixed width line, and remove the strong-hlang-strong-br part of the div. Sorry I don’t know the line numbers of those changes, but I can count them if you need.
With LINE_NUMBERS = True the font it fine. It seems to happen when I change that to false. If you can track it down, that would be great. If not, I’ll live.
Thanks for you help so far.

I see you got this working. I’m trying to do the same thing. Can you share what you used?
Thanks

amit: Thanks for the help. I’m using vb.php for vba (Excel) which has some additional/different keywords. When I get it updated, I’ll make it available and you can support vba in your next version – if people want to make that distinction.
If you have a chance, could you look at the blank line issue I’m having. In the second code block on this post
https://www.dicks-blog.com/archives/2004/12/07/using-copypaste-in-userforms/
The “Option Explicit” is one font and everything after the blank line is another. If I put a space in that blank like (or anything else), then it formats everything the same. It happens in the first code block on that post too, the second one is a little shorter and easier to explain.
Thanks for this plugin. It has been a huge time saver for me.

It appears to be rendering in monospace font now, I don’t know what’s changed. As for the textbox, I commented out ~line 742 right below where it says “comment this line to not have fixed width/length”, etc. Duh!
I also noticed that if I have blank lines in the code that is screws up the formatting. Putting a single space in those blank lines seems to fix it.

Me again: Could you look at
https://www.dicks-blog.com/archives/2004/11/30/alerts-when-sharing-and-unsharing/
and tell me why the code is in a scrollable text box? I ended up enclosing the VB tags in <font face=Courier New> tags, but I can’t believe that would cause it. It doesn’t show that way in the preview when I’m editing the post, just on the site.
Any help is appreciated. Dick K.

Amit: This is great, just what I’ve been looking for. Two questions – Can I add keywords to the array in vb.php (I already added one, but is it alright to add them and is there a limit)?
Can I change the font-family to “Courier New, Courier, monospace” and where would I do that?
Thanks
