If you need to add Lua support for WordPress SyntaxHighlighter Evolved plugin then here is one way:
Download this ZIP file. It contains 2 files:
- shBrushLua.js – Lua Brush file
- shBrushLua.php – WordPress plugin
Extract these 2 files and use FTP to navigate to your plugins folder (usually /public_html/wp-content/plugins), create new directory, for example syntaxhighlighter-brushes, and upload these 2 extracted files.
Go to WordPress admin -> Plugins -> Installed Plugin and activate “SyntaxHighlighter Evolved: Lua File Brush”,
Now you will be able to use Lua language with this code:
[[lua]
— some Lua code here
print “Hello World!”
[/lua]]
and it should display something like this :
-- some Lua code here print "Hello World!"
