Code and Core

The Code and Core Remove Empty P Tags is a powerful yet lightweight plugin that helps you eliminate unwanted spacing in your WordPress content. With version 2.0.0, we’ve introduced complete flexibility with two cleanup modes:
<ol>
<li>Frontend Cleanup (Recommended): Automatically cleans content as it’s displayed on your site. This is non-destructive, meaning your database remains untouched while your visitors see perfectly clean content.</li>
<li>Backend Cleanup (Editor-based): Adds a checkbox to your post/page editor. When checked, content is cleaned and saved directly to the database.</li>
</ol>
What it removes:
<ul>
<li>Empty paragraph tags.</li>
<li>Paragraphs containing only non-breaking spaces.</li>
<li>Empty paragraphs with line breaks.</li>
<li>Multiple consecutive line breaks (collapses them into one).</li>
</ul>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Frontend & Backend modes: Choose between site-wide display cleanup or permanent database cleanup.</li>
<li>Block Editor (Gutenberg) Support: Fully compatible with the modern WordPress editor.</li>
<li>Classic Editor Support: Continued support for the traditional TinyMCE editor.</li>
<li>ACF Support: Clean up content in Advanced Custom Fields (WYSIWYG and Textarea).</li>
<li>Custom Post Types: Enable cleanup for any public post type on your site.</li>
<li>Exclude Post IDs: Easily skip cleanup on specific pages or posts.</li>
<li>Lightweight: Minimal impact on site performance.</li>
</ul>
