Is there a way to remove Spacer code from pages other than manual editing?

  • Hello, I’m using the Spacer plugin with Tesseract theme and it did the job well. I was glad to have found it. Now I see that Tesseract theme developers advise not to use it with their theme, and unfortunately the code [spacer height=”20px”] is showing on the web pages. This will be showing in a number of my posts and I’m wondering if there is a way to remove the code without having to edit each page?

    When I looked at the Spacer plugin WordPress page it says it has not been tested with my current version of WordPress, and I wonder if it’s not compatible with 4.6.1 and this is why the code is visible now?

    Edit and update

    The problem appears to be solved after reactivating Spacer plugin. I would still be interested to know if there is a way to remove the code without editing each post?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hi Aeve,

    Nice to hear from you.

    Glad you were able to get it working. The plugin is compatible with version 4.6.1 – I just need to mark it as such in the plugin code.

    I don’t know of any way to remove the spacer code from a post without editing the post.

    Best,

    For anyone who finds this and is looking for a solution to remove the spacer code, the quickest way I’ve found is opening the page or post in WordPress backend choose Text view rather than Visual, so that you keep all the links to the media intact. Then copy everything and paste into a word processing document. Then use find and replace function. Select Find and in the box put in [spacer height="20px"] or whichever number spacer height you used. This will highlight all of the code in the document. Then in the box for replacing the text, just leave this blank. Choose to replace all of the highlighted text and they will all be gone and you can then paste all of your edited text back into your WordPress page and update.
