Hello JCE Support Team,

I would like to follow up on an issue that was previously resolved under ticket #117230. In that case, the tag matching feature (highlighting matching tags in the code editor) was restored in JCE Pro 2.9.88 Beta, and it worked perfectly.

However, I’ve noticed that in the current version JCE Pro 2.9.93, the feature seems to be missing again. The matching tag highlighting is no longer active, and I don’t see an option to enable it in the settings.

Could you please confirm if this was intentionally disabled or if it’s a bug that has reappeared? This feature is extremely useful for working with HTML, and it would be great if it could remain available in future releases.

Thank you very much for your help and support.

Best regards,
Dustin

 Thanks for the quick reply and the explanation. I downloaded and installed JCE Pro 2.9.94 Beta 1 from the link you shared, but the tag matching highlight in the Code Editor is still not working on my side.

Could you confirm whether “2.9.94 Beta 1” is the build that includes the fix you mentioned, or if there’s a newer beta (different build) I should try? If the fix should already be present, is there any setting/cache/profile step I should reset?

If it helps, I’m happy to try a temporary manual workaround. If there’s a CodeMirror init/config file where I can enable this (e.g., matchTags and/or matchBrackets), please point me to the exact file and lines to edit and I’ll patch it locally until the next release (I understand it may be overwritten by updates).

Repro: Open JCE Editor → switch to Code view → place caret on <div> → expected: matching </div> is highlighted; actual: no highlight.

I can share environment details or test a patched build if needed. Thanks again!

Best regards,
Dustin

Thanks for the follow-up. I did clear the browser cache after installing.
To be thorough, I also tried the following:

• Completely uninstalled the previous version before installing the latest beta.

• Tested right after a fresh install in a private/incognito window.

• Even tested from a clean Joomla installation with a brand-new JCE Pro setup.

Unfortunately, the tag matching highlight still doesn’t work for me in any of these cases.

Could you please confirm if the fix should already be active in 2.9.94 Beta 3, or if I should wait for a different beta/release build?

Thanks again for your help.

Best regards,
Dustin
