FTDetect files not getting sourced

[ghost]

I am using my vim-slim plugin with vundle.

When I just use it with vundle, it ignores the ftdetect (It appears since the highlighting does not kick in) but when I manually run the commands out of the ftdetect file (IE :autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.slim set filetype=slim) and then open the slim files it loads the syntax highlighting.

Is there any reason that vundle would be ignoring the ftdetect directory?

Ok, that's the case when you Vundle configuration should look like this

filetype off
" vundle configuration here
" ...
filetype plugin indent on

Please let me know if it works for you..

PS: i couldn't reproduce this issue before... I'll update the docs
Thank you!

Having problems with this for some plugins like VimClojure or Bundle 'acustodioo/vim-tmux' which use ftdetect.
i do have filetype off and filetype plugin indent on
myvimrc is @ https://github.com/locojay/locovim/blob/master/vimrc.
Thanks for helping

As seen above, lots of UltiSnips users end up running into filetype-related issues if they configure this incorrectly (e.g. when using the UltiSnipsEdit command). For me, it was important to have the entire block of Vundle configuration in one piece, with the two filetype calls immediately above and below it (as shown by @gmarik above). Hopefully this helps someone who comes across this in the future.

@user453584 worked for me as well. Finally! I was getting really tired of this one. Thanks!

This might help someone later...

If moving filetype plugin indent on to after vundle#end doesn't fix it for you, try moving syntax on also to after the call to vundle#end. All the vundle configuration doesn't have to be in one place if you move both filetype plugin indent on and syntax on below vundle#end.

+1 on sharat87 solution.
It is related to a lot on utliSnip issues.
Maybe the Readme.md should be updated to remove any doubt ?

@elrrrrrrr please don't add +1 comments on issues unless you have new information that people should read. A lot of emails get sent every time someone makes a comment.
