I\'m mainly working with HTML, CSS and Python code.

Answer 4

ANSWER AS OF June 2019

Install the XML Tools plugin from the Plugin Admin (in Notepad++ 7.7 at least)

Then click Plugins -> XML Tools -> Pretty Print (XML Only with Line breaks)

That did it for me.

Answer 5

We can use the following shortcut in the latest version of notepad++ for formatting the code

Alt + Ctrl + Shift + B

Answer 6

This isn't quite the answer you were looking for, but it's the solution I came to when I had the same question.

I'm a pretty serious Notepad++ user, so don't take this the wrong way. I have started using NetBeans 8 to develop websites in addition to Notepad++ because you can set it to autoformat on save for all your languages, and there are a ton of configuration options for how the formatting looks, down to the most minute detail. You might look into it and find it is a worthy tool to use in conjunction with notepad++. It's also open source, completely free, and has a bunch of plugins and other useful things like automatically compiling Sass if you use that too. It's definitely not as quick as NP++ so it's not great for small edits, but it can be nice for a long coding session.
