I edited the html.xml file in Notepad++ i've added one new line to test if it would autocomplete but it's not. I added <KeyWord name="form-control" />. This isn't an html tag but a CSS class. So while I was typing <div class="form..... I get the autocomplete popop which has the word form, but not this keyword. Autcomplete is on and works. Do I have to edit some other file? The file i'm editing has HTML set as the language.

  • Which HTML.xml file did you edit? There's one in langs directory for syntax highlighting and another in API/autocomplete (something like that) that is what you want.

  • @NeilNeyman Notepad++\plugins\APIs\html.xml is the file I edited

  • Is it possible you need both? Also dumb question but just to rule out anything did you restart notepad++ after editing?

  • @NeilNeyman I don't see any other HTML files. Yes I restarted multiple times, verified my edits were saved, loaded other language files, reloaded HTML, opened closed files loaded HTML again etc.

    Sorry. langs.xml is the other file you want to edit, not langs directory.

Making this an answer.

Try editing both langs.xml and html.xml with the words you want to add. Save, restart, say a prayer and hopefully it works!

  • Awesome that's it, to autocomplete new words. The word must be in both the API language file html.xml as well as in the langs.model file
