		partialRootPaths.500 = EXT:yourExtention/Resources/Private/Partials/

3. Click on the content button to create a new content element
4. Switch to **Highlight.js**
5. Choose your content element

Additional info
---------------

[](#additional-info)

Since Highlight.js supports a load of languages, i can not include them all at once so if you want more styles or languages to be included, create an issue in order to get them asap included.

In case you have the TypoScript and FLUID language definitions, please submit them here so i will be able to add them on the extension:
