Simple javascript using amp-script not working

Hello @stevenbradley

Thank you for contacting us, Can you please share the page where you implemented the amp-script?

Actually, after investigating it looks like the classic editor is the issue. When I add the code in the text view it is fine, but when I switch the tab to visual it must remove it because when I switch back to text view the code is gone.

So classic editor is removing the code dynamically when the view is toggled between text and visual.

Is there a working solution for this?

Also this is the code that is being removed by classic editor:

<amp-script src=”https://example.com/my-script.js&#8221; width=”300″ height=”100″>
<p>A single line of text</p>
</amp-script>

It’s leaving the paragraph element and removing the surrounding amp-script tag.

Hello @stevenbradley

Thank you for identifying the issue, as we mentioned in your previous support topic for amp-carousel classic editors is corrupting the amp tags and there is no solution for it.

We will recommend adding amp-script using a WordPress hook based on the location where you want them.

Alright, thanks. I will look into how to hack the classic editor as that is the real issue at this point and is not really an AMP plugin problem as I originally thought.

@stevenbradley As we didn’t receive a response I’ll mark this as resolved. Feel free to open a new support topic if you require any further assistance.
