Title: [Plugin: WP-TopBar] Validation errors and Wp-TopBar Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: WP-TopBar] Validation errors and Wp-TopBar * Resolved [niska](https://wordpress.org/support/users/niska/) * (@niska) * [14 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-topbar-validation-errors-and-wp-topbar/) * Just added Wp-topbar to my blog. No special settings. And then I validated the HTML. * 2 Errors: * – An extra ” is added before the href attribute (“href=””) – The plugin adds html code before the body-tag * Can this be fixed? * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-topbar/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-topbar/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * [thatwastaxing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thatwastaxing/) * (@thatwastaxing) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-topbar-validation-errors-and-wp-topbar/#post-2612373) * Yes, please fix the issue with the code appearing within the head tags rather than the body. Otherwise, works great. * Plugin Author [rfgoetz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rfgoetz/) * (@rfgoetz) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-topbar-validation-errors-and-wp-topbar/#post-2612382) * I moved the HTML from the HEAD tags to prepended to the BODY via javascript. Try version 3.03. * Thread Starter [niska](https://wordpress.org/support/users/niska/) * (@niska) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-topbar-validation-errors-and-wp-topbar/#post-2612383) * Nice try – but I still get validation errors. * Could you consider adding the top bar using * add_action(‘wp_footer’, ‘your_function’); * and then moving it via javascript? Then the page will validate.

I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled. With the topbar in the head tags, it worked. After you fixed the validation errors, it stopped working. * Plugin Author [rfgoetz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rfgoetz/) * (@rfgoetz) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-topbar-validation-errors-and-wp-topbar/#post-2612391) * Append &debug to the wp-topbar admin page URL. When you reload the admin page, it will print out a number of messages. Copy all of them into a reply to this thread. The messages tell me how you have configured the topbar. * &debug sets a timer and will show the debug messages on the wp-topbar admin page for about a minute, So, if you remove &debug from the URL, the debug messages will still show up for about a minute. It will also add messages to the WordPress debug log for any page views of your website, if you have debug turned on, for that same time period. * Bob * [thatwastaxing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thatwastaxing/) * (@thatwastaxing) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-topbar-validation-errors-and-wp-topbar/#post-2612393) * Here you go: * ``` WP-TopBar Debug Mode: in wtpb_check_for_plugin_upgrade WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Version 3.05 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: end of wtpb_check_for_plugin_upgrade WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Server Timezone:UTC WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Current Time :1333485289-2012-04-03 20:34:49 (UTC) WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Starting Time:0-0-1970-01-01 00:00:00 (UTC) WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Ending Time :0-0-1970-01-01 00:00:00 (UTC) WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Start Time is zero WP-TopBar Debug Mode: End Time is zero WP-TopBar Debug Mode: TopBar will display due to time settings and because it is enabled WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Cookie Name: wptopbar_adb2e8c677ecccd883ebf44735d2f094 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Cookie not found WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Not an iPhone/iPad/iPod Device WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Filename:/home/annabita/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-topbar/lib/ WP-TopBar Debug Mode: -------------------------------------- WP-TopBar Debug Mode: Using these "wptbAdminOptions" Values: WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [wptb_version]: 3.05 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [enable_topbar]: true WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [topbar_pos]: header WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [text_color]: #000000 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [bar_color]: #d7e9f3 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [bottom_color]: #86b2c9 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [link_color]: #333333 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [bottom_border_height]: 3 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [include_pages]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [invert_include]: no WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [delay_time]: 5000 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [slide_time]: 200 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [display_time]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [start_time]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [end_time]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [start_time_utc]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [end_time_utc]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [font_size]: 14 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [padding_top]: 8 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [padding_bottom]: 8 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [margin_top]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [margin_bottom]: 0 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [respect_cookie]: ignore WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [cookie_value]: 1 WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [past_cookie_values]: Array WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [allow_close]: no WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [close_button_image]: http://localhost/test/wp-content/plugins/wp-topbar/lib/images/close.png WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [close_button_css]: float:right; WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [link_target]: self WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [bar_link]: http://localhost/test/contact/ WP-TopBar Debug Mode: [bar_text]: Our site is now in beta!

The problem is with text. The apostrophe isn’t being escaped, it seems. I removed it and it works fine again.
