html 5.1 validation error

    Hello,

    w3c validator is giving an error “Element link is missing required attribute property” because the stylesheets are in the body.

    They are allowed in the body only if they have an “itemprop” property, but the plugin is no adding any itemprop property.

    In our case

    property=”stylesheet”

    should be added.

    Instead than:

    <link rel='stylesheet' id='metaslider-flex-slider-css'  href='https://example.com/wp-content/plugins/ml-slider/assets/sliders/flexslider/flexslider.css?ver=3.3' type='text/css' media='all' />

    It should be:

    <link rel='stylesheet' property="stylesheet" id='metaslider-flex-slider-css'  href='https://example.com/wp-content/plugins/ml-slider/assets/sliders/flexslider/flexslider.css?ver=3.3' type='text/css' media='all' />

    Is it possible to fix it?

    Hi utnalove,

    Thanks for reporting this and providing the solution. I can’t see this documented (in any skim readable form!) on the internet, anyhere. This could be a super simple solution to something that’s been bugging me (and users) for ages.

    This code will add the property attribute:

    I’ve only tested as far as checking the source code to make sure the attribute is added correctly. If it works for you please let me know and I’ll do some more testing and look at getting it added to Meta Slider.

    Regards,
    Tom

    Into your themes functions.php file.

    Hello, yes. That code resolves the validation error.
    Will you create a new version?
