 ## Troubleshooting
 
+### Emacs
+
+#### Parse errors, file state going out of sync
+With the `lsp-mode` client for Emacs, it seems that the document can very easily get out of sync between, which leads to parse errors being displayed. To fix this, enable full document synchronization with
+
+```elisp
+(setq lsp-document-sync-method 'full)
+```
+
+#### [`emacs-direnv`](https://github.com/wbolster/emacs-direnv) loads environment too late
+`emacs-direnv` sometimes loads the environment too late, meaning `lsp-mode` won't be able to find correct GHC/cabal versions. To fix this, add a direnv update hook *after* adding the lsp hook for `haskell-mode` (meaning the direnv hook is executed first, because hooks are LIFO):
+```elisp
+(add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'lsp)
+(add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'direnv-update-environment)
+```
+
 ### DYLD on macOS
 
 If you hit a problem that looks like ```can't load .so/.DLL for: libiconv.dylib (dlopen(libiconv.dylib, 5): image not found)```, it means that libraries cannot be found in the library path. We can hint where to look for them and append more paths to `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH`.
