stripping out elements and formatting

    Any <p> elements are not showing up in the newsletter’s html. I.e.<p style=”text-align: center;”>test</p> only shows up as “test” without the <p> or css styling in html of newsletter.

    Can this be fixed? I’ve tried using the “TinyMCE Advanced” plugin and it does not resolve the issue. The same code on a WP posts page does keep the <p> element and it’s formatting.

    @yogabasics Thanks for the question. In the markup, the plugin intentionally removes all <p> tags from the markup and replaces them with 2 <br /> tags to achieve the effect of a new paragraph. The reason we chose to do this was many email clients add their own padding/margins to any <p> tags within the email, which leads to inconsistent layouts across email clients. In an effort to normalize the spacing, we chose to remove <p> tags completely from the markup.

    An unfortunate side effect of that is any inline styles applied to a <p> tag will be lost.

    Let me look into adding some logic that retains any styles applied to <p> tags, and perhaps in the interim, you can add <span> tags inside of the <p> tags and add your inline styles there. In your case:

    <p><span style="text-align:center;">test</span></p>

    Ill will reply to this chain when I have a solution in place. Thanks
