Does not work on other status lines except the first one

[trallnag]

To reproduce use this configuration:

set-option -g status 2
set -g status-right '#{prefix_highlight}'
set-option -g "status-format[1]" "#{prefix_highlight}"

set-option -g @plugin tmux-plugins/tpm

set-option -g @plugin tmux-plugins/tmux-prefix-highlight
set-option -g @prefix_highlight_show_copy_mode on
set-option -g @prefix_highlight_show_sync_mode on

run-shell ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm

I would expect the #{prefix_highlight} everywhere, not just the first status line.

I'm trying to figure out this same kind of problem with a different plugin... I think it's because of how they're set up, but I'm not sure if this is a plugin-specific thing or a tpm thing.

    local -r status_left_value="$(tmux_option "status-left")"
    tmux set-option -gq "status-left" "${status_left_value//$place_holder/$highlight}"

    local -r status_right_value="$(tmux_option "status-right")"
    tmux set-option -gq "status-right" "${status_right_value//$place_holder/$highlight}"

Like the other project I'm looking at, the code seems to explicitly call status-left and status-right but there's nothing in there for format-status[i]

I would have expected the plugins to just return values, but apparently they're more complex than that
