[mini.surround] has no effect, as if require('mini.surround').setup() wasn't there

[proofer]

I'm stumped. The title's setup() call is among those of several other mini.nvim sub-plugins within the lazy.nvim installation of the mini.nvim library;' all of of the others work. But if I type s in normal mode, the character under the cursor is deleted and insert mode is entered -- the standard vim action. which-key shows no mappings starting with s. Any ideas for chasing this down?

neovim 0.10.1; macOS

When you enter :Lazy: Is the plugin in the loaded section? Next to the plugin, the keys in use are displayed.

A scenario I can think of when using LazyVim:

1. Extra mini.surround enabled. Default keys start with gs
2. Flash disabled

Sorry; fixed.

Please keep in mind that everything works, and has been doing so for many months, except mini.surround. And until recently, mini.surround was working, too. But a couple of months ago I had some issues with plugin interactions and pinned mini.nvim, which-key, and one other plugin to a previous commit. A few days ago I un-pinned them to use current versions.

This sounds like an issue with 'which-key.nvim' rewrite about two months. I think 'timeoutlen' is the issue and this should help. But here is a fuller list of steps I'd do to eliminate basic reasons:

• Execute :=MiniSurround. If it prints nil, then require('mini.surround').setup() was not called. Make sure it is called.
• Execute :nmap s. It should show a bunch of mappings from 'mini.surround'. If not, make sure there is no plugin interactive with those keymaps later.
• If both previous steps are resolved, make sure to have high enough 'timeoutlen' (by adding vim.o.timeoutlen = 1000 in your config) and/or disable built-in s key (by adding vim.keymap.set({ 'n', 'x' }, 's', '<Nop>') line to your config). I personally use the second approach.

Thanks! I'll take a look.

I also think it's a matter of timeoutlen. When I type sa in quick succession, surround kicks in.

[proofer]

timeoutlen is it! Thanks very much for your help!

@abeldekat, thanks for taking your time to troubleshoot this! Highly appreciated!

[abeldekat]

Most welcome!

I encountered this same issue too and setting vim.o.timeoutlen = 1000 solved it. I would like to suggest mentioning this requirement in the README.md so that users of mini.surround are informed at the get-go. @proofer Thank u for raising this issue.
