Why is VS Code removing closing tag ?> on save. anyone knows?


when i save my php file then VS Code removes ?> tag from ending. and its causing problems in execution. I dont know why is this happening. If anyone knows please help. Thank u.

Update: I was using Es-lint and Prettier extensions at the same time. I removed them and now its fine.


Solution

  • I find two ways to solve this problem.

    1. Go to VSCode settings and in the search bar type "format", then uncheck Editor: Format on save. Formatting the code will no longer work, but VSCode will also not delete the PHP closing tag.

    2. Install the php cs fixer extension and I hope it will solve the issue.
