Hey @slouchpie, I’ve been using mmm mode to switch between mhtml and elixir mode, perhaps this would be better than your current setup?

(require-package 'mmm-mode)

(require 'mmm-defaults)

(setq mmm-global-mode 'auto
      mmm-submode-decoration-level 0
      mmm-parse-when-idle t)


(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.html.eex\\'" . mhtml-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.html.leex\\'" . mhtml-mode))

(mmm-add-classes
 '((eex-elixir
    :submode elixir-mode
    :face mmm-declaration-submode-face
    :front "<%[#=%]*" ;; regex to find the opening tag
    :back "%>"))) ;; regex to find the closing tag

(mmm-add-mode-ext-class 'mhtml-mode nil 'eex-elixir)
