Does anyone know how to have line numbering enabled in wordpress when you go to edit a php document?

The code is showing up, but the lines are not numbered. Thanks.

  • That's not a feature in Wordpress, though there might be a plugin for it. To get line numbers you need to use an actual code editors like Notepad++.
  • While I know the WP Editor exists, it's serves as a downright awful 'editor' - so if you are handy, just grab a free FTP and a proper text editor.

    If you're on a Mac, use these:
    FTP: CyberDuck
    Editor: TextWrangler

    For PC:
    FTP: FileZilla or CyberDuck (PC version)
    Editor: Notepad++ as suggested by Christian
  • Ok you guys are right, i think ill just use dreamweaver. Thanks.

  • Plus, no undo function after you save in the WP editor window is a killer.

    Not that I learned that the hard way or anything....
  • I find textpad pretty good for this, though for once-offs you could use the code editor through your filemanager in cpanel. :-)
  • i personally love wp editor for quick fix tho... but i use dreamweaver for major work
