Hello, for some weird reason, the message “Html code here! Replace this with any non empty text and that’s it.” is showing up at the top of ALL pages (not posts), I can’t figure how to remove it. Not sure when it started, I didn’t notice but my client just told me to remove…

The section with this message doesn’t appear anywhere in the pages content, so I don’t know how to remove it… any idea? Hope to hear from you soon, thanks in advance!!

It seems the message appears along with the block “text with title”. The thing is I just need the custom title and it was working great before I updated the theme… this message wasn’t showing before that. I understand the solution is to add a text but I don’t need a text right after the title, so I really need to remove this message ():)

I think it presumes you want text + title; you might try simply putting non breaking space ?

  

May not be best solution (I don’t work here.) Just quick fix.

Thank you! It actually worked!! \0/
But I’m sure it changed with the last update, it wasn’t like that before… I’ll add a space manually to each page, thank you again!!

Now there’s a bigger space between the title and content, it doesn’t look pretty, I hope they fix the code (or just change it back) anyway… it seems now the content is required when using text with title.

Yeah, that adds a ‘line break’ as anything actually there takes a line of text, even if invisible.

Likely a fix with CSS … but, maybe the TagDiv folks will have ‘actual’ solution 😉

I hope so, thank you Chris!! 🙂

Hi,

You could remove that text if needed. That is displayed when there is no content in that element. It would require a modification to the text with title element, like this

It worked, thank you!!:)
Will I need to change it again everytime the theme is updated?

Cheers!

Hi,

The files from the shortcodes folder can be modified through a child theme as well. That way you would not need to make the modification again, after updating the theme.
More information about the child theme here

Sorry for highjacking this thread. Actually, this error annoyed me as well and I solved it by modifiying code.


@tagdiv
: Since it seems that many people find this annoying and there is no obvious reason for showing this message, do you consider to remove by default with the next update?

Hi,

I could not say for sure if that element will be subject to change in a future update. At the moment the method provided above would be the only way of removing the placeholder text. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Thank

How do I change the text at all ?

I do understand that this text “Html code here! Replace this with any non empty text and that’s it.” is a placeholder, but where do I actually change this text or input some text ?

I would like to enter some text at the “Contact Page” in order to have the placeholder-text disappear.

Many thanks for help !

Hi,


@Erich
Indeed that is a placeholder, you can enter your own content and it will be removed. After placing the element on the page, enter content in it like this
