HTML tag showing at the top of posts

in ‘tester’, this is the section from the html in the browser:

<p><<a href="https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel" style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''"></a>h1>tester
</p>

do you have any idea, where that ‘solor panel’ code is coming from?

at least in the test post, this seems to be breaking the html code.

Hi

Thank you so much for your reply

I have no idea where it is coming from. I do have a link called
https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel to an amazon product. But this was a new post to show you the problem and all I did was add the H1 tag to the word tester

Everything was fine until the update for 3.1.

Is it something changed in a style sheet ?

Thanks again

Kathy

In your source code I can see this:
<p><<a href="https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel" style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''"></a>h1>tester</h1>

You can see after the p tag that ithas two << after it, and you can see the h1 tag is missing it’s opening <

Obviously the sunforce solar panel is breaking your code – because it is being inserted in the wrong place. It needs to cme before or after the h1. I’m guessing you may have added something to your theme, and put it in the middle of that opeing h1 tag?

note: the correct way for this to display would be:

<p><h1>tester</h1>
<a href="https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel" style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''"></a>

Hope that helps – you can hopefully see that it is just that the < and the h1> are split.

this has definitively nothing to do with any changes to a stylesheet.

I do have a link called
https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel to an amazon product.

that link seems to be in every single post.

are you using a plugin for the amazon stuff?

try to deactivate all plugins, and if this solves the problem, reactivate one after the other, to see which one is causing the issue.

Hi

As far as I know I have not touched my theme only the make my header bigger which was done a few months back before I had this problem. I can see what you mean about the < tag. I have not actually inserted the https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel into any template as it is only a affiliate link to an amazon product.

I can see what you mean about it breaking the code but I do not know how to fix it, or which template to look at. I am using the readily theme from flexithemes.

Thanks you again for your help

Hi

Yes I have just installed an amazon plugin but the trouble started before a couple of weeks ago, but I will try to deactivate all my plugins and have a go.

Thanks

I can see what you mean but on the tester page the only thing I have added on that page was the word tester. In the html editor all that is showing is <h1>tester</h1>. I do not know how to correct the problem and why the link https://danthegardener.com/SunforceSolarPanel is being inserted automatically.

thanks

Kathy

As alchymyth, try deactivating all plugins.

You can deactivate all at once, test and see if problem is resolved – if it is turn them on one at a time and test each time to see when problem occurs.

If you turn off all plugins and the problem is still present, we’ll have to go back to the drawing board.

Hi

Ok I think I have found the culprit a plugin that does not seem to be compatable with the latest update. Many thanks for your help I have been going round in circles for days trying to sort this out.

You have made me a happy girlie today

Kindest regards

Kathy
