HTML Auto-indent Does Not Work If Original File Type is PHP
See original GitHub issue- VSCode Version: Version: 1.28.2 (user setup) Commit: 7f3ce96ff4729c91352ae6def877e59c561f4850 Date: 2018-10-17T00:23:51.859Z Electron: 2.0.9 Chrome: 61.0.3163.100 Node.js: 8.9.3 V8: 6.1.534.41 Architecture: x64
- OS Version: Windows 7
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create new PHP file
- Type in div.class, hit tab, hit enter
Current Solution:
Change file type to HTML, and then back to PHP
Proposed solution:
In a file type where HTML tab-completion works, HTML auto-indenting should also work
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Quick Google search did not provide clear instructions on how to perform this in Windows.

This is definitely a bug, the fact that it’s been around for so long is a little concerning. I’ve been quite about this for a while. But it’s really starting to annoy me. It’s a shame because VSCode is amazing code editor otherwise.
