Elementor Syntax Highlighter

Description

THIS PLUGIN IS NO LONGER MAINTAINED, SINCE ELEMENTOR NOW HAS A SYNTAX HIGHLIGHT WIDGET OF ITS OWN.

This Elementor widget allows you to add syntax highlighted code snippets to your content.

The syntax highlighter is implemented using PrismJS.

To use drag the “Highlighted Code” widget from the “Basic” section of the Elementor sidebar onto you post. Then select the language you will be using and fill in the code in the sidebar. You’ll see a preview of what things will look like in the main content panel.

Installation

Make sure Elementor is activated, then activate this plugin. You’ll see the widget under the “Basic” section in the Elementor sidebar.

Plugin works as intended. Perfectly simple. Still lacks few features that would be great (copy/paste button, numbered lines, style settings). In my case I would love to see it having width setting because my website is narrow and I would like to somehow stay without horizontal scroll. Thanks for good plugin

The plugin works as advertised in the plugin description. I appreciate your work. It’s the one and only working code highlighting for elementor. Looking for future updates with line numbering and the copy feature.
