FIX: Ivy-mode not loading automaticly!

[co-key]

Hi Daviwil,

First thank you for the great vid's and contributions. I'm new to emacs and this will explain al lot and help me starting.

I heard you complaining about the ivy-mode not loading automaticly, as it should. I had a look in it and found the problem.

In your init.el file you set the use-package ivy... within the same parentesies you find the '(ivy-mode 1)' call. If you'll take these out off the parentesies and put hem below it does work.

So the code should changed to:

(use-package ivy
  :diminish
  :bind (("C-s" . swiper)
         :map ivy-minibuffer-map
         ("TAB" . ivy-alt-done)
         ("C-l" . ivy-alt-done)
         ("C-j" . ivy-next-line)
         ("C-k" . ivy-previous-line)
         :map ivy-switch-buffer-map
         ("C-k" . ivy-previous-line)
         ("C-l" . ivy-done)
         ("C-d" . ivy-switch-buffer-kill)
         :map ivy-reverse-i-search-map
         ("C-k" . ivy-previous-line)
         ("C-d" . ivy-reverse-i-search-kill))
  :config
  ;; (ivy-mode 1) ** Wrong placement **
  )

(ivy-mode 1) ;; ** Right placement, it's loading now at startup. **

I'm not much further in you're vid's but I see you have this issue at more places in you're file. This might help!

I think you could also do it this way :init (ivy-mode 1)

In my Ubuntu,
It should change to
:init (ivy-mode 1)
And the :config in 'ivy' must be deleted, otherwise when I use ivy-rich mode, it will not work.

And in order to make ivy-rich work, I must also use counsel package.

(use-package ivy
