[box id='1' text="some texte"]
the shortcode, at one point is outputting text
the html result is : /p some text /p
There is an extra closing paragraph in the start and and opening at the end... WHY ?
where those come from ?.... any idea ?.. it screw my w3 validation !
** note i have found that... but look all "patched" to me...any clean solution... wp is dirty ? reference
When using a shortcode in the block editor, I had a really hard time removing extra p tags until I used the "Custom HTML" block and inserted the shortcode in there.
Hope this helps someone out there like me.
I had the same problem and checked the $content in the add_filter() function. There you can see what happen with the shortcodes. I ended up with an easy plugin, that removes silly p and br tags on shortcodes: http://www.johannheyne.de/wordpress/shortcode-empty-paragraph-fix/
I discover that it's a know bug, and will be fix in future release Reference here So then, i used this code... not pretty, but do the magic !, thanks
$content = do_shortcode( shortcode_unautop( $content ) );
if ( '</p>' == substr( $content, 0, 4 )
and '<p>' == substr( $content, strlen( $content ) - 3 ) )
$content = substr( $content, 4, strlen( $content ) - 7 );
return '<div my stuff>' . $content . '</div>';
Make sure there is a double line-break before and after the shortcode in the editor;
