Frustrating WYSIWYG problem (years running now…)

  • Ok, I am quite frustrated with this problem.

    According to the official WordPress codex (https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Wrapping_Text_Around_Images) they suggest you do this:
    <br style="clear: both;" />
    to clear the display. They say that the WYSIWYG editor will not remove the div (because of this bug which has not been fixed for years).

    I don’t understand why there is no simple way to clear the display after images using the WYSIWYG editor, and furthermore why even when done in HTML view it might get deleted if some user edits the page in Visual mode.

    I have read some forums and people say you should create a proper template (CSS) to deal with this.

    However this solution is not at all ideal if you want the posts to be edited by people in visual mode.

    Why has WordPress not come up with a viable solution to this problem, and if they have could you please share it with me?

    Many thanks!
