Plugin tabs not validating (obselete tag on each tab title)

    First of all, thanks for making this plugin, I enjoy using it.

    I run into validation problems for my website (W3C validator, html5 doctype) on all pages using your plugin. The problem resides in an extra </p> element that is inserted after each tab-title. See the validator output below:

    Error Line 130, Column 68: No p element in scope but a p end tag seen.
    <span class=’postTabs_titles’><b>grootste datingsites</b></span></p>

    I have made one edit to your plugin to make the font size of the tabs larger (but I suspect it does not influence this issue):

    /* Make font size tabs larger */
ul.postTabs li a {
	font-size: 16px !important;
}

    I suspect this is easily fixable. Can you please let me know if there is a workaround to this issue until then?

    Thank you for your time.

  • Open Plugin Editor, navigate to Post Tabs, ctrl+f the following: “</b></span>”.

    Change the following:
    $op .= "<span class='postTabs_titles'><b>".$results_t[$x]."</b></span>";

    to
    $op .= "<p><span class='postTabs_titles'><b>".$results_t[$x]."</b></span>";

    Now, open your Theme Functions page in Theme editor, and add the following to it (at the bottom if you’re unsure on how to edit this) (as seen here):

    remove_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' );
add_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' , 12);

    (First fix just opens a paragraph tag to be closed, and the second fix keeps the shortcode embedded tab area from being encased in paragraph tags (I noticed an open paragraph tag in my source when I went to take a look at this problem.))

    Not affiliated with this plugin in any way, just thought I’d try to help.
