Something is wrong with Emmet in Visual Studio Code

Question

After the last update, Emmet is working in some different (incorrect) way.

If I\'m typing usual code in Emmet syntax like:

.row>.col*2

Answer 1

I just ran into this same problem, but I have a slightly different reason for it. Not only did I need to set triggerExpansionOnTab to true, but I also needed to set the included languages in the settings.json file.

In my case, Emmet was not activated for blade.php files. So, I needed to add "blade":"html" within the includedLanguages section.

Full example:

"emmet.triggerExpansionOnTab": true,
"emmet.includeLanguages": {
    "javascript": "javascript",
    "vue-html": "html",
    "php": "html",
    "blade": "html",
}

Adding this might also help:

"emmet.useNewEmmet": true,
