Update to 3.6 broke only social links

It looks like your install is running the WordPress wpautop filter after the Biography Box has been produced and it’s this that is wrapping the link separator in paragraph tags.

Try setting the Synchronise Automatic Paragraph Formatting For Content check-box in the plugin’s Admin tab; this should prevent this from happening in 90% of cases. If it doesn’t I’ll need to look at how your theme (and other plugins) are working in a bit more detail, but try this first.

We are testing on WP 3.5.1.
I am seeing the same <P> marks added to the dividers “|”.

I have set the “synchronize” function as described above, and did not affect the output. Is there anything else I can try?

@wpagentur … I’ve just gone back and revisited the URL you posted and the contact links in the Biography Box are lining up as they should do. Did you make any changes to the plugin’s settings, to your installed plugins or your theme?

@inzerillo87 … this is something to do with either your theme or with another of your plugins. It doesn’t look like a CSS issue but I can definitely see in the page source of the link you posted that the | separator is being surrounded by paragraph tags.

To narrow this down, I’d recommend the standard WordPress troubleshooting of reverting to a stock WordPress theme (one of the Twenty series) and disabling all other plugins. That should help you detect whether it’s a theme issue or a plugin issue.

Thanks much! I will have our team do some testing, and will reply back with any findings, if applicable.
