good chance your theme is using wpautop – http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wpautop
try it on another theme and see if it works as expected
Hi Marcus,
thanks for the answer. I deactivated the wpautop with the plugin, “wpautop-control”, but I still got the blank paragraph. Maybe there is another problem?
Thowe
maybe you can try something like this
p:empty {
display:none;
}
in your theme style.css
Hi Angelo,
thanks again for your answer 🙂
But I still have this one blank paragraph between Title and the categories List.
Actually, this is the shortcode I’m using:
<p>
<strong>WETTBEWERBE</strong>
#_CATEGORIES
</p>
Try this:
<p><strong>WETTBEWERBE</strong>
#_CATEGORIES
</p>
it still doesn’t work. Really strange…
Well, I’m working offline with MAMP… But I will try it soon.
@ Marcus,
I also tried another theme, but there is still the same problem.
Might be worth trying everything on one line:
<p><strong>WETTBEWERBE</strong> #_CATEGORIES</p>
Hi Caimin,
well, it still doesn’t work. I found out, that when the event has no category, the message “no categories” appears right without the white-space paragraph.
I also use the shortcode #CATEGORIES in the even-list, but everything works just fine there without this white-space paragraph.
can you share sample links for us to see and analyze?
