Unwanted p tags in the editor

    Why WordPress puts these <p> tags everywhere? Can’t we use our own HTML on pages? Is there any way to prevent it from doing so? This is driving my mad.

  • If you edit all of your posts and pages in the “Text” tab rather than “Visual,” you have more control over the html. However, WordPress does try to correct malformed code so as to display your content correctly.

    Tip: don’t switch between “Text” and “Visual” – pick one and stay with it for the duration of your editing of that particular post or page.

    I found an option to remove “wpautop” filer. What a relief! That’s simply AWESOME now without those <p> tags ??

    Automatic <p> insertion is definitely not something I would ever want to use.

    Please mark this topic as resolved. Glad you found something that works for you!
