Shortcode: Highlighting Code

These are the parameters you can pass to the shortcode and what they do. For the booleans (i.e. on/off), pass true/1 or false/0.

lang or language — The language syntax to highlight with. You can alternately just use that as the tag, such as
```
code
```
. Click here for a list of valid tags (under “aliases”).
autolinks — Toggle automatic URL linking.
classname — Add an additional CSS class to the code box.
collapse — Toggle collapsing the code box by default, requiring a click to expand it. Good for large code posts.
firstline — An interger specifying what number the first line should be (for the line numbering).
gutter — Toggle the left-side line numbering.
highlight — A comma-separated list of line numbers to highlight. You can also specify a range. Example: 2,5-10,12
htmlscript — Toggle highlighting any extra HTML/XML. Good for when you’re mixing HTML/XML with another language, such as having PHP inside an HTML web page. The above preview has it enabled for example. This only works with certain languages.
light — Toggle light mode which disables the gutter and toolbar all at once.
padlinenumbers — Controls line number padding. Valid values are false (no padding), true (automatic padding), or an integer (forced padding).
title (v3 only) — Sets some text to show up before the code. Very useful when combined with the collapse parameter.
toolbar — Toggle the toolbar (buttons in v2, the about question mark in v3)
wraplines (v2 only) — Toggle line wrapping.
