Extra span being printed

Hi there,

Love the plugin is easy to use. Just having this one problem that is causing my list of links to not be aligned properly if they wrap onto a second line.

I’m using this in a category page to show the top links by category
```
if (function_exists('wpp_get_mostpopular')) {
    wpp_get_mostpopular(array(
        'limit' => 6,
        'cat' => $catID,
        'stats_views' => 0
    ));
}
```
Even though I’ve turned off the stats_views it’s still printing in the HTML:
<span class="wpp-meta post-stats"></span>

Could you help with this at all? I’ve tried display none but the span is still causing the list spacing to shift slightly.

Hi @jonnyrefined,

Can you please share your site’s URL so I can see the span/shifting issue?

Hi Hector,

thanks for the fast response, is there any way for me to privately share the link to the site with you?

Thanks

Got it, thanks Jonny.

Alright, I checked your website and I’m not sure that the issue is being caused by the span tag. I removed it from the page using the console and the shifting was still there.

So instead I played around with the CSS rules and with these the spacing between the bullet and the post title is now consistent:
```
.wpp-list li::before {
    display: none;
}

.wpp-list li {
    padding-left: 1em;
    margin-top: 0.5em;
    margin-left: 0.25em;
    transition: text-shadow 0.3s;
    cursor: pointer;
    background: url(/wp-content/themes/caj/assets/svg/svg-desktop/arrow.svg) left 0.35em no-repeat;
    background-size: 0.5em;
}
```
Give that a shot and report back your results.
