Context: I have a syntax highlighter on my site, but it has some shortcomings with things like lazy loading comments, so I’m considering whether to purchase your syntax highlighter.

Three pre-sale questions:
1) Does your highlighter style correctly for comments that are loaded via Ajax / lazy load?
2) Is there a way for commenters to use the syntax highlighter if the rich editor is disabled? Currently I’m having users wrap their code inside a shortcode that gets processed. Could something like that be made to work?
3) Is there a way to use the syntax highlighter in the post content? I don’t want to run separate syntax highlighters for post vs comment code.

Thanks much!

1) Does your highlighter style correctly for comments that are loaded via Ajax / lazy load?

Yes, it works fine with Ajax / lazy load.

2) Is there a way for commenters to use the syntax highlighter if the rich editor is disabled? Currently I’m having users wrap their code inside a shortcode that gets processed. Could something like that be made to work?

The addon works if the rich editor is enabled.

3) Is there a way to use the syntax highlighter in the post content? I don’t want to run separate syntax highlighters for post vs comment code.

Yes, you can use the “Custom Selector” option. It allows highlighting the code outside the comment section.

Thank you for the answers. A few follow up questions if you would be so kind:
1) I couldn’t find any documentation about the custom selector. Can you give me an example of what a custom selector looks like? Is it an HTML 5 element? A class on a div?
2) If the custom selector option can be used in the body of a post, couldn’t it also be used in the body of a comment typed in the non-rich text editor?

Thank you again.

It is possible to embed wpDiscuz or install in a HTML website, or only on WordPress?
