What is wrong with prettify? WordPress

Jens Filipsson comments:

Yes, I saw that as well! It's weird, but it still shouldn't force a line break I reckon?

She Codes comments:

This is by no means the best way to do this, but it is the quickest way I could think of to check if clean_pre is adding the break. Please try this instead of your function (the < code> tags without spaces off course):

function bbcode( $attr, $content = null ) {
$content = str_replace('<', '&lt;', $content);
$content = str_replace('>', '&gt;', $content);
$content = str_replace('&lt;p&gt;', '<p>', $content);
$content = str_replace('&lt;/p&gt;', '</p>', $content);
$content = str_replace('&lt;br /&gt;', '<br />', $content);

$content = clean_pre($content); // Clean pre-tags
return '<pre class="prettyprint">< code>' . $content . '< /code></pre>';
}

add_shortcode('kod', 'bbcode');

Jens Filipsson comments:

No difference I'm afraid :(

She Codes comments:

One last idea from me:

function bbcode( $attr, $content = null ) {

$content = clean_pre($content); // Clean pre-tags

return '<pre class="prettyprint"><code>' . $content . '< /code></pre>';

}
add_shortcode('kod', 'bbcode');

She Codes comments:

Sorry:

function bbcode( $attr, $content = null ) {

$content = clean_pre($content); // Clean pre-tags

return '<pre class="prettyprint">< code>' . $content . '< /code></pre>';

}
add_shortcode('kod', 'bbcode');

Jens Filipsson comments:

Thing is, my function replaces < with &lt;

but without it, nothing at all displays...

She Codes comments:

Can you lose the <pre> tag and style the <code class="prettyprint"> the same way?

She Codes comments:

No, you cannot... Forget the last one.

I think I found where the problem comes from.

1. Open brand new post, paste this
'<div></div>
in Visual editor, then change to HTML.


2. Delete everything and now paste it in HTML, change to Visual and then change back to HTML.

I think the HTML editor does this, because it forces DIV (block-level) tags on a new line. I suppose the same would happen if the tag was H2, but not if it was SPAN.

She Codes comments:

Therefore, if you don't switch between both editors, the problem should not occur.

Or, if you go to HTML, delete the space and then re-save the post whilst still in HTML view.

No other ideas...

Jens Filipsson comments:

That's totally the problem. I'm usually just using the html editor though. I never change to visual. So I really shouldn't have the problem in the first place, right?

Even if I save it the way it looks right in HTML, it still comes out wrong as it seems. Is it possible to override this somehow?

She Codes comments:

If you go to Visual editor and re-paste your shortcode there:

[kod]<?php if ($col == 1) echo '<div class="rad">'; ?>[/kod]

in html this should be converted to

[kod]<?php if ($col == 1) echo '<div class="rad">'; ?>[/kod]

and maybe the div tag would not be recognized as such, therefore would not break on a new line.

This is not a real solution though, as you would have to perform it on a case per case basis.

Jens Filipsson comments:

Yes, this is probably the solution I have to go with. Very annoying though, I hate not finding the answers to things! :)
