    Hello,
    i write some instructions about the docker and later i noticed that the code is always changed from “: –” to “: – “. So you cannot copy the code anymore.

    I enter the code with the Enlighter Plugin. It does not matter which text formatting I choose.

    Here is an example:

    Result:

    Can someone please help me.

    Thanks a lot.

    disable wptexturize – it’s not an Enlighter issue

    Thanks for your quick answer.

    I have tried these instructions:
    https://www.thewebflash.com/how-to-properly-disable-wptexturize-in-wordpress/

    Unfortunately it does not work for me.

    Is there another way to disable wptexturize?

    Thanks for any help.

    i’ve tried to reproduce the issue within the current version but it’s working as expected. maybe it is another plugin or your theme which applies the filter

    Thanks for the help ??

    I could find the problem. It was because of the plugin “WP YouTube Lyte”. When I deactivated this, everything worked quite normal.

    Edit wp-youtube-lyte.php

    Try comment out, so double dashes are working again. Dont know why this plugin made this.

    `if ( apply_filters( ‘lyte_kinda_textureize’, true ) ) {
    // replace remaining double dash but restore it in comment tags (this is getting ugly though).
    // $the_content = str_replace( array( ‘ — ‘, ‘– ‘, ‘ –‘ ), ‘ – ‘, $the_content );
    // $the_content = str_replace( ‘<! –’, ‘<!–‘, $the_content );
    // $the_content = str_replace( ‘– >’, ‘–>’, $the_content );
    }`
