Support » Fixing WordPress » The ‘more’ link eating my words

  • I just noticed a strange bug (I assume it’s a bug). If I write an article, and insert my own paragraph tags, so it looks like this:

    blah blah blah
    <!--more-->blah blah blah
    blah blah blah

    Then WordPress outputs this:

    blah blah blah
    blah blah blah</>
    blah blah

    Every time I save the article, a little bit more of the third paragraph gets deleted – I just had to refer to the google cache to restore a sentence…

    I’m sorry, I’ll try that again.

    you don’t need to insert paragraph tags. wp will automagically do this for you.

    Sometimes it’s necessary – if I wish to have <p class="blah"> for instance.
    I still haven’t managed to get the code example to come out correctly (can’t this forum have a preview function?), but what I mean is when I’m using the <–more–> thing, positioned after the 2nd
    The same problem exists with header tags as well.

    It’s because of WP’s correcting faulty XHTML. Kill that option under Writing and it shouldn’t be happening again.
