@Jerry-D ,

You need to add : to the Operators 1 list on Operators & Delimiter, so that the UDL text parser can see that the : isn’t meant to be part of the non-keyword string ABILITYCATEGORY: instead of the keyword string ABILITYCATEGORY

Here’s replicating your issue (with a small example):

Note that ABILITYCATEGORY, Background, VISIBLE, and QUALIFY are all defined as keywords, but none are highlighted.

Now edit Operators & Delimiter > Operators 1 list (with operator style set RED to make it obvious):

@Drift91 said in Notepad++ v8.9.1 Release:

the user had outdated themes, which didn’t have the KEY style for either Langage:INI or Language:Properties.

Were the preinstalled themes out-of-date,

Yes. Only stylers.model.xml and themes\DarkModeDefault.xml were guaranteed to have all updates; all other themes were up to the original theme author and/or other volunteers to keep up to date, and volunteer ever took real ownership of them. That’s why I implemented the new feature, to make sure that themes would never get hopelessly out of date again.

I didn’t see a changelog entry about it.

The changes involved in this new feature were announced as:

@iChal2112 That worked. Thank you :).

I will add the steps in case anyone finds this post with google.

Click the settings icon in the notepad ++ ftp plugin, profile settings, click a profile you want to edit, cache, click the … button by add new button, set a local path I chose C:\Users\user_name\Downloads, set a external path I chose /, click the add new button

An odd thing to note. I am using Windows 11. I also have admin privileges on my computer but still needed to do this. Not sure why I was having trouble. This issue occurred on a red hat server. The red hat server has time out issues all the time.

I have zero problems on my sunos servers. I did not change my cache settings at all on my sunos servers.

Someone that is good with copilot pointed out another option is to use winscp with notepad ++. This required no setup. Just use winscp to open your remote file in notepad++. I have notepad ++ setup as my default text editor. Not sure if this is the case for all Linux/Unix servers but scp is more stable on the red hat server I am using.

Thx for your answers
@Coises: I’ll give it a try
