    Hi Thomas,

    Thanks for getting in touch. Would you be able to provide a little bit more context about the issue you are facing. I understand that the type attribute may be unnecessary. I am wondering if you can elaborate on:

    1. What is the purpose of this “better HTML checking”? I am wondering what the optimisation gained here is? Is it reducing unnecessary bytes from your html file?
    2. Is there anything on your web page that is currently broken as a result of this attribute. This will help us prioritise this task in our backlog.

    Thanks for taking the time,

    Best,

    Conor

    As part of WordPress Leipzig, we looked at valid code. It plays a role in accessibility and SEO.

    Luckily my site only has 1 error and 2 warnings.

    One option and solution we had discussed was to inform the plugin authors about the invalid code.

    This is not a high priority, but the requirements for accessibility in Germany and Europe will change considerably in 2025.

    Hi Thomas,

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I will add an accessibility item to our backlog. I anticipate this issue will be resolved within a couple of months.

    Best,
