Blade isn't automatically identified

[ShawnMcCool]

Can you include instructions on how to make blade.php files automatically identified in Sublime Text 2?

[Medalink]

The syntax looks for *.blade.php files and if it matches it auto selects Blade. Check to make sure Blade is in your Syntax definitions and that it works.

What version of Sublime are you using?

Did a major update, if the problem still persists please open another issues.

Closing.

Looks like it defaults back to PHP mode when the file is saved. But perhaps this is due to PHP's identifier and not Blades.

Same issue here. Is there a solution for this?

Figured out what was going on. You have to turn off 'Detect Syntax' package, and that fixed the problem.

U can use the DetectSyntax package if you add this to the package settings:

"syntaxes": [
    {
        "name": "Blade",
        "rules": [
            {"file_name": ".*\\.blade.php$"}
        ]
    }
]

I still had this issue (with only the "Blade" package added - no other packages).

To fix I opened one of my 'blade.php' files - and then went to View -> Syntax -> Open all with current extension as... -> Blade

And now its fixed
