remove the h3 attribute for widget titles

Hey Webmaster,
To change all of the widget titles from H3 to “p” add this code to the end of your child theme functions.php file in Appearance ▸ Editor:

function custom_widgettitle_script() { ?>
  <script>
(function($) {
    function replaceElementTag(targetSelector, newTagString) {
      $(targetSelector).each(function(){
        var newElem = $(newTagString, {html: $(this).html()});
        $.each(this.attributes, function() {
          newElem.attr(this.name, this.value);
        });
        $(this).replaceWith(newElem);
      });
    }
    replaceElementTag('h3.widgettitle', '<p></p>');
}(jQuery)); 
</script>
  <?php
}
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'custom_widgettitle_script', 99 );

Please ensure to copy the code from the forum and not an email notification so the symbols are not converted.

Best regards,
Mike
