I use the Enlighter plugin as Syntax Highlighter for blocks of code. It however doesn’t support the formatting of inline codes.
I couldn’t find any suitable plugin that supports inline code (didn’t search that much tbh), so I opted to just add custom CSS.
I couldn’t find an easy way to customize my theme with custom CSS, so I opted to use a plugin to inject it for me: Simple Custom CSS and JS.
Using the plugin, I injected the following CSS:
code {
padding: .25em .5em;
font-size: 85%;
background: #f9f9f9;
color: #bf616a;
border-radius: 3px;
}
Now, my inline code blocks look like this. Looks much better now IMO.
