WYSIWYG behavior and text processing
-
Hey all!
I’m trying to change the way that the rich text editor processes posts.
If I write the following inside the visual tab:Hi, This is a paragraph. And this is a line break inside the paragraph. This is a new paragraph.
A few things come to notice.
First of all, if I inspect the rich editor I can see that each line is in its own paragraph, like below:<p>Hi,</p> <p> </p> <p>This is a post.</p> <p>And this is a line break in the same paragraph.</p> <p> </p> <p>This is a new paragraph.</p>
Also, if I head over to the HTML/text tab, I see this:
Hi,   This is a post. And this is a line break in the same paragraph.   This is a new paragraph.
Finally, if I look on the actual blog page itself. It has trimmed all the white lines and wrapped each sentence in a paragraph tag:
<p>Hi,</p> <p> </p> <p>This is a post.</p> <p>And this is a line break in the same paragraph.</p> <p> </p> <p>This is a new paragraph.</p>
I have to use the wpautop() function to get the same result on the blog page as inside the wysiwyg editor.
However this is not the issue here. The thing I would like to know is where and how I can change the way that WordPress processes post content before it gets inserted to the database.
Any help is appreciated 🙂
