Cannot figure out how to enable code highlights?

All my code examples that was perfectly highlighted readthedoc and default them, are now not highlighted at all. I use ```php to insert codes.

Is Pygments and CodeHilite installed and added to your mkdocs.yml?

Yep, I had that and Pygment installed. I've found that even in default template particulary php is not working. If I start code with <?php then it highlights but if I start PHP code right away, it does not highlight.

Could be something with Pygments then?

If given and True the lexer starts highlighting with php code (i.e.: no starting <?php required). The default is False.

I see. Thank you.

There is a way to get PHP to highlight without <?php. See #506.
