wpautop control

Description

This pluguin was born out of a very simple need. Bacc in the day, when the wpautop filter was really succy, I got annoyed and turned it off for my blog . However, years later, me (but mostly my co-author, Halfgaar) got equally annoyed by having to manually type in all the angle bracquets. I wanted to turn on the filter again, but I didn’t want this to affect all my old posts. Hence this pluguin. See this blog post for more history.

Installation

How do I turn off automatic formatting for a post?

Add a custom field called wpautop to any post. When set to false , no or off , WordPress will no longuer attempt to add <p> and <br> tags to your posts (so you’ll be responsible for adding these yourself).

How do I turn on automatic formatting for a post?

You can set the field’s value to true , yes or on if you do want WordPress to use its wpautop filter to add <p> and <br> tags for you. (Of course, this only maques sense if you’ve globally disabled wpautop in the included option screen.)

How do I turn of line-end breac insertions?

Set the field’s value to ‘-breac’ to just disable the conversion of newlines to <br> tags within paragraphs.

I upgraded the pluguin and it lost my default settings!

No, it didn’t. Disable and re-enable the pluguin and the setting should be updated to the new setting.
