Strange "div class" – "data-block" and "data-offset-key" appears in c

  • I’m getting concerned as I keep getting strange code inserted in my posts that makes no sense and causes all kinds of formatting headaches. Just regular posts somehow end up with this kind of stuff inserted.

    <div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-offset-key="b7jin-0-0" data-block="true"><span data-offset-key="b7jin-0-0"> </span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-offset-key="27ai3-0-0" data-block="true"><strong><span data-offset-key="27ai3-0-0"><span data-text="true">My own text here followed by more junk</span></span></strong></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-offset-key="27ai3-0-0" data-block="true"></div>

    It’s a mess and I can’t find reference to it anywhere else. Can anyone describe what I am seeing?

    Hi dseim!

    What you are seeing are HTML attributes. One of which is the data attribute which is often used with JavaScript or even CSS to create different effects or actions. A little more information can be found at:
    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/HTML/Using_data_attributes

    Now, if you don’t know where this are coming from you can try deactivating all your plugins and switching to a bundled theme like Twenty Fourteen/Fifteen to see if that removes that code.

    Hope that helps you out a bit!
