### 󠀁[Works great](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-great-5648/)󠁿

Just installed on Wordpress 5.1 to replace Crayon and had no problems, especially
with Crayon compatibility enabled. It does require a little work to clean up minor
formatting problems caused by the switch, but that’s generally not a problem. It
is also missing a few languages that Crayon has, but highlight.js is fairly configurable
in that regard.

Great job! The UI is a little rudimentary but you’ve done a great job in a nice 
clean implementation of the highlight.js library in Wordpress. Congrats!

### 󠀁[Awesome and Light](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/awesome-and-light/)󠁿

I used to use Crayon Syntax Highlighter and is awesome too, but wp-code-highlightjs
is better for my site and loads faster.

 [John](https://profiles.wordpress.org/johnolek/) March 13, 2017

I’m so pleased I finally found a plugin that did exactly what I wanted. I tried 
a number of other syntax highlighting plugins, and they all fell short in one way
or another. Thanks so much for this!
