    Naturally, right before client sign-off. When editing content in text box, upon selection, the text dissapears (turns white) in visual mode, and in text mode paragraph tags appear…but not properly.

    Following previous threads, I did the cache fix, the plugin fix, and the activate and deactivate the theme fix to no avail. For two seperate sites and projects, this is very troublesome. Please let know how we can fix this.
    Sincerely,
    John

    PS I tried editing in firefox as well as safari with the same results.

    Hi artcave2!

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    On what page is this happening? Did you add any html codes on the page? Make sure that you close the tags properly because all content will be erase below those tags. You’re still using 2.9.1 which is not compatible with WP 4.0. Please download the latest version from your themeforest account then update the theme via FTP. Please refer to this link for more info: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/updating-your-theme-files/

    Cheers!

    Hey!

    You are currently not using the latest version of the theme. Please update Enfold to the latest version 2.9.2 via FTP – http://vimeo.com/67209750 and let us know if issue remains.

    Cheers!

    Dear Yigit and Enfold team:

    I just FTP’d/updated all the new files for the core Enfold theme. This did not fix it. First edit is fine, then going to another tab, the code is messed up with random p tags and the visual view is broken (white).

    Again, even though it took 5 days to get to this round of tests…the client wants to go live in a few days…and edit the menu. Also, I have used this for two clients and have two more…but I need this fixed (I do pay every time I use it). l ; )
    Thank you in advance!!

    Hey!

    Thank you for the info.

    It is a standard feature of WordPress called wpautop: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wpautop

    Anyway, I created a test page then manually removed the spaces between the lines of Dessert tab. Please use the Text or HTML mode if you’re editing the content. http://snogren-design.com/test-page/#tab-id-4

    Best regards,

    Ismael,

    Thank you for the test and the quick reply.
    I need some clear answers on how to proceed.
    When tested, your tip does not work. Each time, extra paragraphs tags are added (orphaned ‘p’ tags) and even after cleaning the code the visual edit screen does not work. This only happened after upgrading to the most recent version of WordPress.

    Because I hope to use your theme for this and upcoming websites I need to figure out how to really fix this.
    How to make this NOT happen?
    1) Creating a new sandbox site with a new install and never upgrade to WP4?
    2) Is this rare or are others having the same problem with your theme?
    3) You know I have already and want to purchase more of your themes….and make this client happy right now…so please help me understand how to better approach this problem. It seems this is a functionality problem on your end??? I will do the grunt work… reinstall, etc. but I hope you will point me in the right direction.

    Thank you very much … your expertise is MUCH appreciated.
    John

    Hi!

    Are you referring to this space? that’s because the title has an extra line in the backend – http://screencast.com/t/mYrU9IRE.

    Hi Josue,
    No, I am referring to:
    Opening and closing an edit box in visual mode (edite and save one text box, then go to another on the same page) the following occurs:
    1) The editor renders all the text white (seems empty)
    2) The editor adds p tags. Not efficiently however. Adds orphans.
    3) If I delete all of the p tags in code view, the p tags reappear.
    You can imagine how frustrating this is.
    As above hear is a copy of before and after showing original code, and then the results after the editor changes it.

    Before and After sample ( see above in September 16 post)
    As written

    <h1><strong>Dessert Menu</strong></h1>
    <strong>Bourbon Pecan Bread</strong> Pudding w/ caramel sauce and whipped cream <strong>6</strong>

    Problem appears after the second time a text box is opened and saved (but page has not been updated). Sometimes, appears right away on first attempt to edit.

    <p>
    <h1><strong>Dessert Menu</strong></h1>
    <p><strong>Bourbon Pecan Bread</strong> Pudding w/ caramel sauce and whipped cream <strong>6</strong></p>
    <strong>Attempted fixes:</strong>

    I have copied all of the enfold theme manually to make sure the it is updated but that did not fix it. I turned off and on all of the plugins, switched to a different theme, switched back, and it did not fix it. On another theme…the text editor works. The only thing I did not do is create a new site, manually install wordpress, then manually add your theme.

    I see this issue popping up with others and also on other themes such as Avada (they created a plugin to fix it)

    Any guidance is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,
    John

    Browser:
    I am seeing this in Firefox – using an up-to-date version 32.0.2 and Safari (but Firefox my preferred dev browser) (Mac – Maverics). This continues to exist.

    Hey!

    Thank you for the update.

    The paragraph tag doesn’t break the layout. You need to avoid switching between visual and text mode as much as possible. Please try this plugin to toggle wpautop: https://wordpress.org/plugins/toggle-wpautop/
