How to comment html in php file in vim?

Question

I use this plugin for comments.

Plug 'tpope/vim-commentary'

And when I comment html code in php I get

/* <div class="our-photos"> */
/*  <h2 class="our-photos__main-title"><?php echo $main_title; ?></h2> */
/*  <?php slider_component($our_photos, 'our_photos', false, false); ?> */
/* </div> */

But I want to get this

<!--<div class="our-photos">-->
<!--<h2 class="our-photos__main-title"><?php //echo $main_title; ?></h2>-->
<!--<?php //slider_component($our_photos, 'our_photos', false, false); ?>-->
<!--</div>-->

Answer 1

I believe your file type is php and your commentstring is /*%s*/ which is reasonable for php files.

To solve your problem you could temporarily change commentstring to<!--%s-->:

set commentstring='<!--%s-->'

or set the filetype to html

set ft=html

If you want to do that forever for php file you could add the following command:

setlocal commentstring='<!--%s-->'

To the vimfiles/after/ftplugin/php.vim file.
