Topic on Extension talk:SyntaxHighlight/Flow

Forgot to set this as resolved from 8 months ago. Solution was to upgrade Pygments extension from 2.11.2 to 2.15.0.

Pygments lexers like "lua", "html", and "css" put pages using <syntaxhighlight> into "Category:Pages with syntax highlighting errors", despite these lexers being correct. Maybe there are other lexers causing this problem - I don't know. But the three I mentioned above are the ones I commonly use for template/module documentation.

I don't know why this happens. The wiki I contribute to runs on MediaWiki 1.39 with Extension:SyntaxHighlight version 2.0. The Pygments documentation states that these Short names: for the lexers I mentioned above are correct, so why are the pages that use them with <syntaxhighlight> placed in the tracking category?

Does anyone know?

Does the code get highlighted? (It’s always good to share a link so that I can answer such simple questions on my own.) The error category gets added whenever the highlighting is unsuccessful – this includes not only incorrect lexer names, but also when the code is too big or calling Pygments fails for any reason.

The code gets highlighted, so I don't know why pages using <syntaxhighlight> end up in the tracking category. There are pages in the tracking category for this wiki that use syntax highlighting correctly but still end up categorized.

Could you please provide a link? It’s very hard to debug without being able to see what exactly is happening.

I apologize for the 2-month late response User:Tacsipacsi. I tried replying sooner, but an error with Extension:StructuredDiscussions on MediaWiki was preventing me from entering a response about a month ago.

I just wanted to let you know that the lexers I defined 2 months ago as not working do work again. The pages on the wiki I contribute to no longer end up being incorrectly categorized under this extension's tracking category when using <syntaxhighlight> correctly.

This issue I had may have been fixed with a major version update to Pygments. During the time I had the categorization issue, this extension was using Pygments 2.11.2. It now uses Pygments 2.15.0 as of April 10 of this year (commit 9f9c13b).
