Hi, had no problems with syntax highlighting on my site appart in that particular post , for an unknown reason, any idea? (I forced lisp syntax)

I think it may be the size of the snippet. When I (very roughly :slight_smile:) chop out a chunk of the first one to make it smaller it then highlights as expected. (In combination with the codeblock line numbering theme component)

@patrickemin have you figured this out? From JammyDodger’s assessment, it seems to be related to te line numbering component, which seems to not work for larger code blocks.
