It was hard to find a code syntax highlighter that was compatible with my version(
latest) of WP. This plugin works great! Now I have nice looking code blocks on my
front end. This developer obviously keep the plugin up to date. Great job!

Wordpress 6.7.1, maybe that's the problem. Added the /prismatic, inserted code, 
choosed language in block settings. Nada. Very frustrating.

Great code highlighting, easy to use, lightweight and fast. Supports both prism.
js and highlight.js.

### 󠀁[Best and fastest code highlighter](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-and-fastest-code-highlighter/)󠁿

 [yannpl](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yannpl/) 1. Mäerz 2022

Easy to install, easy to configure, works out of the box. Integration of snippets
in posts and pages is effortless, the color themes are beautiful. It's fast and 
light, doesn't add much to page load.

### 󠀁[Best syntax highlighting plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-syntax-highlighting-plugin-2/)󠁿

 [kayart](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kayart/) 7. Februar 2022

I'd tried a bunch of other syntax highlighting plugins before I found Prismatic.
All of them worked terribly or didn't work at all. Prismatic is a great choice if
you need to add code snippets to your WordPress posts or pages.
