How to remove extra in WordPress?

Question

I'm new to wordpress and currently developing a theme on it. I have noticed that Wordpress adds <p> tags all over the page. Do you know any plugin or a workaround to avoid this?

Answer 1

The WP Unformatted module will remove that default filter.

Answer 2

Add this to your functions.php, this should give the result you're looking for:

remove_filter('the_content', 'wpautop');

Answer 3

Try this, assuming you have the html code in variable $html_code

$html_code = preg_replace('/<\/?p>/','', $html_code);
