Snippets Missing

#1

I have uninstalled, reinstalled, googled every form of my issue. I type in Snippet: and the only options I get are Lorem Ipsum and a user bin snippet. What am I missing? Sorry if this is an obvious thing, Im just so lost!

Snippets are scope sensitive, so you get a different list depending on the file type of the active view, and possibly where the cursor is located.

Well in a blank document, I figure they all should be present. Im trying to use the basic “HTML” template. The only two that show up are the ones I stated before. I’ll try and see if saving it as a .html/.php might help.

Just use "View > Syntax > " and switch to an wanted syntax, e.g.: C++ or HTML
Then execute “Tools > Snippets…” to see the snippets.

A blank document still uses a syntax, namely Plain Text, so only snippets within that scope shows up. Just switch as stated above, and all will be good.
