Click the icon in classic editor. Complete the pop-up. Click insert. Nothing happens. Brilliant. Don't waste your time.

Thank you so much for creating this great plugin. This is by far best and the proper plugin i have found after spending 2 hours. This is a life saver. Otherwise i had to manually wrap my code with pre and code and then assign a class name each time. Oh god!! Thanks again! Great work!
