This plugin uses the Sunburst theme, a colorful and high contrast dark theme to highlight your code syntax with Highlight.js. Highlight.js is accurate, fast, lightweight and easy to use.

Usage

Short-code method:

  1. From within a WordPress page or post, wrap the [prettify][/prettify] shortcode around the code snippet you wish to highlight.
  2. You can specify a language by specifying the language extension inside the shortcode.
    Example:
    [prettify class=”html”][/prettify]
  3. The shortcode will work from within either the Visual or HTML editor.

Non-short-code method:

  1. Wrap your code snippets in “

    .

  2. You can specify a language by specifying a class in the element.
    Example:
    <pre><code class="html">

Sunburst Only
