About this plugin
Integrates the Prism Syntax Highlighting Library in WordPress.
It is called detached, since the code examples are not stuffed into the rich text editor, together with all the
other texts and content, but they are added separately as custom fields and just referenced via short tags (like footnotes).
Check Other Notes for usage documentation.
The official development repository is hosted on Github.
Usage
The basic procedure is:
- Create a custom field and paste the code into it.
- Insert the [prism...] shorttag in your code, where you want the code block to appear.
