vim-surround and problem with 'html.autoClosingTags"

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (choose one):

BUG REPORT

What happened:

With vim-surround feature. If i do use tag, it seem working wrong. Like:

<tag></tag>Hello</tag>

Maybe because “html.autoClosingTags” setting, if i set it to false, everything working fine, but without html auto closing tag is painful 😢

What did you expect to happen:

vim-surround feature should overwrite default auto closing tags feature of vscode.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Like we have:

<div>
  hello
</div>

Firstly, ensure that “html.autoClosingTags” is “true” in setting.

Choose hello with visual mode, then type:

<kbd>shift</kbd> <kbd>s</kbd> <kbd><</kbd> <kbd>b</kbd> <kbd>></kbd>

I’ll become:

<div>
  <b></b>hello</b>
</div>

Environment:

• Extension (VsCodeVim) version: 0.14.1
• VSCode version: 1.24.1
• OS version: OSX High Sierra 10.13.4 & Ubuntu 18.04

I think it’s a bit late but I just found the solution for this issue. Just disable the built-in close tag inside VSCode and install the Auto Close Tag (by Jun Han) extension instead. The redundant tag is now gone.

Hi @typeoneerror, I do use kbd tag. It’s quite useful 😸
