"" before output and "" after

  • Hi. First of all, great plugin! Saved me a few hours of coding.

    Right now I seem to have a problem with the [cfdb-html] shortcode.

    I’m using it like this:

    [cfdb-html form="Sign the Pledge" show="first-name,country"]{{BEFORE}}<section class="names"><div class="bubble"></div>{{/BEFORE}}${first-name} (${country}), {{AFTER}}</section>{{/AFTER}}[/cfdb-html]

    and it outputs

    <br />
<section class="names">
<div class="bubble"></div>
<p>Name (COUNTRY), </section>
<p>

    for some reason. Any idea how to fix it?

    Note: I’m using an empty paragraph fix for shortcodes, which is working fine on every other shortcode besides this one.

    This form stripped out a <br> and a <p> tag from the title, but you get the idea.

    Try this: add to the short code:
    stripbr="false"

    Thanks, stripbr="true" worked, it removed the <br>, but the empty <p> is still there after the shortcode.
    This is what’s rendered now:

    <section class="names">
<div class="bubble"></div>
<p>Name (Country), </section>
<p>

    Make sure there are no line breaks in the short code.

    Just double-checked, no line-breaks at all. This is my exact code: [cfdb-html form="Sign the Pledge" show="first-name,country" stripbr="true"]{{BEFORE}}<section class="names"><div class="bubble"></div>{{/BEFORE}}${first-name} (${country}), {{AFTER}}</section>{{/AFTER}}[/cfdb-html]

    PS: I really appreciate you taking the time to answer me.

    Not sure…
    Use the “Text” not “Visual” editing tab in WordPress editor to see if there are any tag in there. (You are probably doing that already).

    Yep, I am editing in text mode.

    Got around this by not using the before and after fields. After removing those the extra <p> dissapeared and I’ve added the wrapper code by hand. Thanks for your time on this though.
