Bulleted list is changing every time I save my page

Hi,

I really like your theme, but I’m keep getting problems with your composer tool. At the moment I am busy making some pages using your composer, but every time I am saving the page, something on my pages is shifting and changing.
It happens that after saving there are extra empty rows added to my content text, but most of the problems seem to be with the bulleted list.
To make myself more clear, here is a screenshot:

Left side is how I make it and how it should be and right side is how it ends up.

Thanks,

Small update:
After saving, it adds:  
It seem to happen after headers and in bulleted list.
I found a couple of similar problems online, but not a clear solution for this problem.
Some one was saying it might be a “ckeditor bug”. I am not very technical, so could not figure it our by myself to solve it. Hope you got the solution for me!

Hi,

I tried to replicate this but I don’t quite know how to do it

If you press enter twice after a line or between the lines of the list an empty space will be created, but that is supposed to happen. That would happen in a default WordPress theme when creating a list with the WordPress editor.

Thanks

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. I don’t press enter twice after a line and that is exactly the problem. I have been working for WordPress for about 7 years with different themes, so I know this is not a mistake I made.
If you check my screenshot, you can see in the left side how I make the bulleted list.

I found these topics from other websites about the same issue:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/31157
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/29702/wordpress-automatically-adding-nbsp

They are talking about TinyMCE. But can not find any solution or I don’t understand it completely.
I am not using any text editing plugins and I also not copy text from Word or another website, so no code is copied from somewhere else.

Also happens when I use other browsers.

So far:
– I installed the theme on a different domain
– I tried different browsers
– I tried even editing content on a different desktop
But with all attempts, I keep getting the same problem. This is so annoying, because I can’t do anything now.

I am not sure, but I think it happens when I am switching between the Composer and the regular editor of WordPress.

Hi,

Indeed, that is an unusual problem, WordPress adding spaces when they should not be there. That could happen if the text is copied from different sources or non-default text editors are used, but in default WordPress editor it should not.

Momentarily the lists look like this when viewing your website

When will those spaces be added, after you edit the page and save it? I will make some more tests.

Hi,

I made a small screen recording for you so you can see it.
You just looked on my website and everything looks okay right? So from that point I start editing again and see what happens:

Also check on 1 min 37 seconds, you can see in the main content there are also spaces added after the 2 headers that you didn’t see in the beginning of the video.

Edit: if you want I can give you login details of my website. It is not my real website, but I use this domain to prepare the new theme for my real website, so you can try it our by yourself.

Please make another test if possible, and this time do not click on update page in the backend anymore

Edit the page as you did before with the composer and use the composer provided save page button only

Let me know if the same thing happens.

I did some testing around and so far I only see this happens when I save in the WordPress editor. When I only save in composer, nothing strange seem to happen.

Updating the page in the backend seems to cause this issue. Thank you for letting us know, I will make a note of it and forward it to our developer team.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
