My template is wrapping paragraph tags around EE jquery. How do I debug

Hi,
If I use the twenty11 theme, everything works fine. But if I use our theme template (from themeforest), I get all the EE based jquery in the page wrapped with tags. I can’t get in touch with the template developer yet so I am asking if you all have an idea on what I can look for in the code to track down this issue?

Hi Robert,

You can try editing the main registration page and wrapping the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode with a [raw] tag:

[raw][ESPRESSO_EVENTS][/raw]

You can also do this with the calendar shortcode:

[RAW][ESPRESSO_CALENDAR][/RAW]

If you see paragraph tags in the markup even after adding the [raw] short tags, add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:

if ( !is_admin() && function_exists( 'espresso_raw_formatter' ) ){
	remove_filter('the_content', 'wpautop');
	remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize');
	add_filter('the_content', 'espresso_raw_formatter', 99);
}

Thanks for the help.
Unfortunately the [RAW] tag didn’t work, it just gets rendered as “[RAW]” on the front end. I will look for the function that is doing this.

Did you try adding this to your theme’s function.php file?

if ( !is_admin() && function_exists( 'espresso_raw_formatter' ) ){
	remove_filter('the_content', 'wpautop');
	remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize');
	add_filter('the_content', 'espresso_raw_formatter', 99);
}

Yes, without luck.
I did find this in the function.php

remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’ );
add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’ , 99);
add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘shortcode_unautop’,100 );

removing the following lines out of the function file fixes the problem, but I am concerned that it might break something else.

remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’ );
add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’ , 99);
add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘shortcode_unautop’,100 );

Hi Robert,

From what I’ve found, theme developers disable the core WP autop filter in order to make their column shortcodes line up correctly. This isn’t a very good solution though. So if you are using the theme’s built in column shortcodes, the columns might not quite line up without that code. If you are seeing this, you could try this plugin:

This plugin creates column shortcodes without disabling the native WordPress formatting.
