Hi there,

I’m having an issue with the wysiwyg custom field adding <br/> after each shortcode I add. I’ve added the exact same code to the wordpress editor and it displays correctly.

So does anyone know how I can remove the unwanted <br/> from wysiwyg as its really messing up the layout.

Thanks,
Jason

I found the answer if anyone else is interested by adding this to functions.php

remove_filter ('acf_the_content', 'wpautop');

Here’s another why to do this:

add_filter('acf_the_content', 'shortcode_empty_paragraph_fix');
function shortcode_empty_paragraph_fix($content) {   
	$array = array (
		'<p>[' => '[', 
		']</p>' => ']', 
		']<br />' => ']'
	);

	$content = strtr($content, $array);

	return $content;
}
