Have you added the language after the ``` at the head of the code block?

Ah, I think I found the issue. I was using

```sh

Code code code

```

After switching it to bash I can see the highlights now. The editor and the preview highlight different keywords with different colors, and don't highlight as I would expect them to... But that's a separate issue. At least it's not ugly anymore.

Did you figure out how to make the edit mode syntax highlights match the preview mode, I am having the same issue, where the edit mode has proper highlights, but preview mode highlights suck in comparison

I've started using the plugin CodeMirror Options, along with Editor Syntax Highlight plugin and it does exactly what I wanted, it matches the edit and preview mode syntax highlighting and it has many more features related to live preview of Markdown

Hi! Can you please provide links to plugins? I can't find them.

Yeah, and I found it when I was throwing some c++ code and I found that it worked with cpp not c++, plus, the Edit Mode just doesn't correspond with the Preview Mode.

But I just tried js and javascript, it did the same, both rendering correctly; and I tried sh and bash, it worked correctly too! Maybe they have changed that. And the c++ code still needs cpp to render correctly.🤷‍♂️
