WP adding ‘p’ tag to my images.
-
Why is WP adding a paragraph tag to images I put in my post? If I want to have 3 images next to each other, I’m unable to do that. WP is putting a paragraph tag around each making them stack, not sit side by side. I can’t find any way of NOT making it do this?
Why is it making decisions like this?
Thanks,
Chris

If you’re talking about the blog linked to your username, you’re in the wrong forum – see the stickies up top on the main page of this forum. If you’re talking about a wp.COM blog, we need a link to it.

@rachmatsetiawan: Yes you can, but a) the p tags do not affect image placement, b) this is the wp.COM forum: we don’t reply to questions before we make sure we’re talking about a wp.com blog.

Yes, this is a wp.com blog.
I have just started managing this forum for someone I do work for. On my own wp.com blog I don’t seem to have this problem. So I’m wondering if it’s the template that was chosen for this blog which is causing the behavior. In my own blog I can insert images and have them sit next to each other.
I partially solved this issue by manually putting the images inside a table.
And I’m unable to delete the ‘p’ tags because WP adds them. The post code does not have them.

You can see the entries with the images. I put the table there to get them to sit next to each other. Simply placing them in the page causes them to be stacked at ‘run time’.
Thanks

Nothing to do with the template, and nothing to do with p tags either. What happens to the content around an image is determined by the image alignment. If you set the image alignment to left, the images will show up in a row – no table needed.
If the total of three images in a row is narrower than your post column, then text will wrap around the third image. If you don’t want that, set the alignment of the third image to none; or add this in the html editor after the third image code:
<br style="clear:both;" />If you want more space between the images, click on them in the visual editor, click the mountain icon, click Advanced Settings, type a number in the “horizontal space” box, click Update; click Update post when you’re done with all the images. (Of course, if you are familiar with html, adding appropriate commands in the html editor is faster.)
