[11.5.362 Pro] - Triggers not showing in popup (MariaDB)

Triggers are not appearing in the popup for a snippet consisting of:

	Code:
	$OBJECT(ins_object, trigger)$

I checked the DB Queries and there is one for Triggers

	Code:
	SELECT CONCAT(EVENT_OBJECT_SCHEMA, '.', EVENT_OBJECT_TABLE, '.', EVENT_MANIPULATION, '=`', TRIGGER_SCHEMA, '`.`', TRIGGER_NAME, '`') FROM information_schema.`TRIGGERS`

That query says there are 4 triggers present in the current schema but none of them turns up in the popup. Any hints on why that happens?

Triggers are not displayed by default in the Intellisense popups for MariaDB. You can turn them on in DB Options -> SQL Assistance -> MariaDB -> SQL Intellisense Items -> Triggers.
Hope this works for you.

Indeed, it was disabled. I've modified some of the DB queries and used some custom snippets before SA had the trigger option for $OBJECT$ macros and it made me very happy when I noticed that option. So I dumped the customized DB Query and then modified the snippet which became much less complicated this way. But to my great dismay, it didn't work. I should have thought about it being added to Intellisense Items.

Any hints on why this is disabled by default? It does not make sense to me.

I think, triggers are not shown in the Intellisense prompts because they are not typically referenced in DML statements SELECT/UPDATE/DELETe/INSERT, nor in EXEC/CALL and similar. That option is for Intellisense only. There is also a separate list for use in the Database Explorer -> Object Type and in similar places, which covers more object types,. And in the later Triggers are preselected by default
