Shopify.theme-check-vscode can't formate liquid code in Vscode

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A VSCode extension for Shopify Liquid formatting has stopped working unexpectedly. The extension previously auto-formatted code on save but now fails to respond when triggered manually (Shift + Alt + F or Command + Shift + X).

Key Issues:

  • The Shopify.theme-check-vscode extension is unresponsive to formatting commands
  • When attempting to format with “Shopify Liquid,” the code is replaced with empty content instead of being properly formatted
  • Standard troubleshooting steps have already been attempted without success

Status: The issue remains unresolved. A video demonstration shows the empty code replacement problem occurring during formatting attempts.
