.tpl (template) files not formatted in Geany IDE

[marxus]

Binary package hint: geany

.tpl (template) files are not automatically formatted using Geany. To acquire desired format, I still need to do it manually from Documents -> Set FileType -> Scripting Language -> PHP Source file or Markup Language -> HTML Source file. Is there a way to automate the file recogniton and formatting? or its a known bug..thanks

You can easily change this locally by going to "Tools" -> "Configuration Files" -> "filetype_extensions.conf" and adding the text "*.tpl;" to the PHP-line. After saving this config-file, Geany should recognize the filetype correctly automatically.

If you think this should be made permanent in Geany, please report a bug for Geany itself at http://www.geany.org/Support/Bugs.

I am converting this to a question.

Thanks it's fixed now..I just did what you suggested, but the changes doesn't applied right away, it took a lot of open/close activity before the changes were applied. Anyway, thanks and it works now. One more thing is, how could I create new file/folder from the sidebar? I don't see anyway to do it from there..

I think that is currently not supported, maybe you can also suggest this as "bug/feature" at http://www.geany.org/Support/Bugs
