The bug is still there, no change, TinyMCE Advanced or wordpress does not accept having plain text or double br, it has to be wrapped in something. There are many topics on this, but none worked for me, i did not try this , now i have a different approach, i leave it like it is, because I have many WordPress installations and i would have to make these changes overall. So, crazy that there is no plugin that solves this, or even that TinyMCE Advanced is not addressing this issue.
On the other Hand, the “br” – element is “a bit strict” defined in html5: the-br-element, so probably it is bad practice to use plain text or double br, so wordpress automatically corrects this.

Hello Andrew, i still have this problem. Every Text that is not formatted will get a <p> Tag when i switch from text/html to visual and then back to html. How can i maintain the Text unformatted?

So i write in html: aaa
Then switch to visual.
The Back to html and i have <p>aaa</p>. that is crazy.

thanks, gabriel

when i load the standard wp-editor, it does not add the p. so that is a bug in TMA.

you have to install version 4.3.10, check “Keep paragraph tags” and write in the html editor:

some text
some text

switch from html to visual and back to html:

it remains:

some text
some text

like it should. in 4.3.10.1, i make the same, the result in the html editor:

<p>some text
some text</p>

if i have this in a div, that messes up all my css.

ok…i solved it myself…i just used:

<?php include(locate_template('/ssi/struc-en_formprocess_frontpage.php')); ?>

and it works now…

exactly…sorry…that is what i get also…but that is not correct.
If the “Keep paragraph tags” option is enabled, the text should remain as it is, not adding <p></p> to it. Keep paragraph tags means, keep the tag -> if there, not add paragraph to the text.
what must i do to keep the original tags?
version 4.3.10 makes this:

some text<br />
some text

version 4.3.10 works like expected. it “keeps” the tags, but it does not add any.

version 4.3.10.1 makes this:

<p>some text<br />
 some text</p>

the <p>-tag was added to the text.
for me this is a huge bug. that can mess up all your layout.

Hallo Andrew,

thankx for the reply,

the point is not that i don’t want p tags, but when i switch to visual, all the text is <p> – tagged, so i think, this is something that nobody wants. there are also some issues with p-tags in the browser. but anyway, you have also situations whre you don’t want the p tag…so that is the issue.

yes, it works now, but i had to replace all “$” with “jQuery”, so i.e.:

$(function() {
$.get("wp-content/themes/mytheme/text/xxxx.php",function(data){
				var inject = '<p id="strip">';
        $('item', data).each(function(i)...

with:

jQuery(function() {
jQuery.get("wp-content/themes/mytheme/text/xxxx.php",function(data){
				var inject = '<p id="strip">';
        jQuery('item', data).each(function(i)...

so, in my case, there was just a small script, but in case that others have this issue, this is the problem. i saw, that the crelly slider also has a $(function), so, there is will appear an inevitable conflict. you can test ist on the same page with such a script…and it will not work.
