Syntax highlighter stops working after using Obsidian/markdown quotes inside admonition

[mikkovedru]

How to reproduce the bug

1. Add 3 test lines inside the admonition:
   
2. Use Obsidian/markdown quote feature(>) on the second line. BUG: Notice that syntax highlighter stopped working on all the lines even below the quoted one.
   

Other interesting detail

Putting a code block returns highlighting back to normal.

Versions

• Obsidian 0.12.10
• Admonition 6.2.2

I think this is the default behavior for the hypermd CodeMirror syntax highlighter inside a code block. Not sure I'll be able to fix this unfortunately.

I reported the bug to the Obsidian developers, and they answered:

This is third-party plugin problem. We don’t provide user support for user problems of third party plugins.

It’s up to the third party author to debug the issue and if the issue is due to Obsidian core report to the dev.

Is there something I can do to help this issue to be fixed?

Hi,

By CodeMirror issue, I meant that this behavior occurs in the hypermd language highlighter (which is what this plugin uses).

I am utterly confused as to where exactly this bug is and who is responsible.

I reported this bug to the CodeMirror developers, but they are confused as well:

I don't know what hypermd is, but there's no support for it anywhere in this library.

I think HyperMD may be this.

But yes, I understand that it's annoying. However, HyperMD is the language highlighter that Obsidian uses to highlight its markdown in edit mode. This same behavior happens in that language highlighter, which means there's nothing I can do, because this plugin just uses that language highlighter.

I just want to know where this bug is located and want to report it to the appropriate party.

It was confusing, because you mentioned CodeMirror, but the bug had nothing to do with them.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. 👍

Yep... I didn't realize HyperMD was a separate thing 🤷🏼 Sorry about that!

No problem, mate. :-)

Thank you for the quick replies and a great job with a lovely plugin that became an essential part of my everyday life! :-)

I'm gonna close this, hopefully HyperMD will fix it.
